Book Description
Financial woes, child-rearing, and employment concerns sound like modern problems, but Lizzie and Berte Ingels faced those same troubles in 1893 and faced them halfway across the nation from each other. Their letters invite today's readers to share the challenges and the joys of life on an Ohio River farm in Victorian times. Elizabeth Riggs, their granddaughter, has woven the letters into a narrative that tells their story. As a senior in high school in 1885, Lizzie kept a journal which vividly describes her studies and commencement as well as her adventures on the Ohio that year. She later treasured Berte's romantic notes during their engagement in 1890. The letters, the journal, and the pre-nuptial notes together provide a window into a time gone by. Lizzie and Berte never made the history books, but their words make history come to life.

“[Oates] has once again held a haunting mirror up to America, revealing who we are.” —Boston Globe The inimitable Joyce Carol Oates returns with Dear Husband—a gripping and moving story collection that powerfully re-imagines the meaning of family in America, often through violent means. Oates, a former recipient of the PEN/Malamud Award for Excellence in Short Fiction—as well as the National Book Award, Prix Femina, and numerous other literary honors—dazzles and disturbs with an outstanding compilation the Washington Post calls, “Savage, poetic and ruthless...among the best things she’s ever done.” Dear Husband is another triumph for the author of The Gravedigger’s Daughter, We Were the Mulvaneys, and Blonde.

Dear Husband
Author: Nancy Peterson
Publisher: Henschelhaus Publishing, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781595987020
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Dear Husband is a powerful, intimate book about loving an addict. Nancy tells her story through a series of letters written to her husband over the course of many years. The letters begin two decades into their marriage, when an already rocky relationship becomes increasingly untenable. This book illuminates their struggles and that of their family with honesty, heartbreak, and humor. This is a story of sadly universal appeal: it is for anyone who has loved an alcoholic or addict, shared a life with one, or had his or her life affected by one. Nancy's story is unique in its epistolary approach, and sheds light on love and life's many shades of gray. People often say to any victim in an abusive relationship "Just leave " - but it is never that simple, nor that easy. This is the portrait of a shared life, with all of its flaws but also its fullness.
