Bøger af Robert Lacy

Presents a remarkable collection of essays that find Robert Lacy - post-Marine Corps - working in a funeral, interviewing Martin Luther King, going off to the Iowa Writers Workshop to work with the likes of Kurt Vonnegut, and landing in the cold comfort of place in Minnesota.

Wonderfully new and vividly descriptive, Happy Birthday, Dear Darrell and other Stories provides an unflinching portrait of everyday life that is a true and rare find. Lacy writes with both courage and compassion in every story he creates.

Engaging and inspirational with just the right hint of humour, I Remember Highway 80 harkens back to an earlier, simpler time in America's history, before the interstate highway system wreaked its havoc on small-town living, when drive-in movie theatres were all the rage, and evenings still ended with a quick spin around the courthouse square.
