{"product_id":"9781421835372","title":"Eighteen","description":"Eighteen, by Sandy Steinman, is authentic, penetrative, and wise. Here is an amalgam of fiction and memoir, of tradition and culture rendered with a diamond cutter's precision and art. Here are small stories that have much to impart: so honestly, so engagingly - here is an illuminated manuscript of journeys: personal, yet universal, and supremely captivating. - Robert Scotellaro, author of Measuring the Distance and Ways to Read the World \"This writer is brilliant!! I'm floored by the stories I've read - her attention to detail and playfulness of language. Sandy Steinman has a seriously wonderful and vibrant voice.\" - Meg Pokrass, author of Spinning to Mars and Cellulose Pajamas \"This accomplished collection of flash fiction\/flash memoir delights the reader with humor and wisdom as it excavates the universal mysteries of the human heart. Alive with the things that a reader might desire - anecdotes, shining everyday details, family history, quirky characters -these stories are Sandy Steinman's generous life gift to us.\" - Mary Kay Rummel, Poet Laureate Emerita of Ventura County, California Author of The Lifeline Trembles and Nocturnes: Between Flesh and Stone \"In Eighteen, Sandy Steinman offers vignettes about growing up in mid-20th century Brooklyn, New York. She writes in the voice of wife, mother, daughter, neighbor, even an Iranian cab driver. With humor and often unusual anecdotes, Steinman reveals a world where a daughter is visited by the ghost of her father, a mother loses her memory, a Jewish department store owner is chastised for having a Santa Claus, and a young girl is pressured into marrying by 18. The book ends with an astonishing synopsis of a long life from age 2, sitting on a pony, to a stunning portrait of the author with her aging mother.\" - Michelle Demers, author of Green Mountain Zen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eSandy Steinman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eBlue Light Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eApr 10, 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e74 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1421835371\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781421835372\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Blue Light Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47748184113457,"sku":"9781421835372","price":24.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/products\/9781421835372.jpg?v=1699517613","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/es\/products\/9781421835372","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
