Description
The Boys of My YouthRarely does the debut of a new writer garner such attention & acclaim. The excitement began the moment "The Fourth State of Matter," one of the fourteen extraordinary personal narratives in this book, appeared in the pages of the New Yorker. It increased when the author received a prestigious Whiting Foundation Award in November 1997, & it continued as the hardcover edition of The Boys of My Youth sold out its first printing even before publication.
Rarely does the debut of a new writer garner such attention & acclaim.

It increased when the author received a prestigious Whiting Foundation Award in November 1997, & it continued as the hardcover edition of The Boys of My Youth sold out its first printing even before publication. The author writes with perfect pitch as she takes us through one woman's life - from childhood to marriage & beyond - & memorably captures the collision of youthful longing & the hard intransigences of time & fate.Binding Type: Paperback

Adorable!
Size: 7 Toddler, Color: Black
These little shoes are absolutely adorable! I got my 2 year old daughter the black sparkly ones. I originally ordered a size 6, but had to return & swap for a size 7. Not sure if this shoe runs a little small or if my daughter’s foot is just a little big. They are a soft rubber & they smell amazing (I know that sounds weird but when you receive them you will see what I’m talking about lol). They seem like very good quality & like they will last awhile, especially on a 2 year old who is hard on shoes!
