I Could Tell You Stories Paperback - 2000
by Patricia Hampl
In this "searching, reverent, humorous, (and) intent on knowing" ("Women's Review of Books") collection of personal stories, Hampl touches on such subjects as her family's response to her writing, the ethics of writing about family and friends, and an early experience reviewing Sylvia Plath. "Rich and idiosyncratic prose".--"New York Times Book Review".
First line
Years ago, in another life, I woke to look out the smeared window of a Greyhound bus I had been riding all night, and in the still-dark morning of a small Missouri river town where the driver had made a scheduled stop at a grimy diner, I saw below me a stout middle-aged woman in a flowered housedress turn and kiss full on the mouth a godlike young man with golden curls.
