Miller, Sue Inventing the Abbotts and Other Stories
Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. HarperPerennial 1999 0060929979 / 9780060929978 Trade Paperback Fine No Jacket
Sue Miller's stories from a chapter in the moral history of our time Like Sue Miller's bestselling novels, this collection of short stories explores the treacherously shifting ground of erotic and family relationships with deftness and depth. The title story is about a young man who takes up successively with three daughters of the most fashionable family in town. In other stories, whose characters range from a young girl in the first blush of sexual curiosity to a stricken dowager whose seizures release a brutal and sometimes obscene candor, Sue Miller presents a compelling gallery of contemporary men and women with hungry hearts and dismayed consciences. Author Biography: Sue Miller is the acclaimed author of Inventing the Abbotts, The Good Mother, Family Pictures, and For Love. She lives in Boston.

Miller, Sue The Good Mother
Perennial 2002 0060505931 / 9780060505936 Trade Paperback Fine
Fine condition. NO remainder marks or clippings. Tight spine, clean pages. Pages show slight tanning. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 310 pages. Synopsis Recently divorced, Anna Dunlap has two passionate attachments: her daughter, four-year-old Molly, and her lover, Leo, the man who makes her feel beautiful and sexual for the first time. Swept away by happiness and passion, Anna feels she has everything she's ever wanted. Then come the shocking charges that would threaten her new love, her new "family" ... that force her to prove she is a good mother. Annotation Sue Miller's critically acclaimed bestseller, The Good Mother, is now being reissued in trade paperback. This thought-provoking and powerful novel asks the question, "to whom is a woman more deeply bound -- the man she loves, or her own child?" Linda Wolf What makes the book truly remarkable is its authenticity...one of the great pleasures of The Good Mother comes...from the author's skilfull rendition of...the common questions of motherhood. I think virtually no one has done it better. -- The New York Times Book Review Biography Sue Miller is an expert in limning the pain of endings, but if this were the extent of her talents, she probably would not be as successful as she is. In Miller's books, one broken relationship often leads to the development of another. Her stories may not offer pat answers and perfect love stories, but readers find something more rewarding in the end.

Miller, Sue The Senator's Wife
Alfred a Knopf Inc 2008 0307264203 / 9780307264206 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Near-Fine
Stated First Edition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $24.95. 306 pages. Tight spine, clean pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. Dustcover shows light wear (NO tears). In her seven previous novels, Sue Miller has demonstrated the distinction between being a dependable storyteller and a predictable one. The Senator's Wife provides further affirmation that she belongs in the former category, a lyrical writer who consistently delivers page-turning domestic dramas that unfold quiet surprises as she peels back the layers of artifice and reserve that shield her complex middle-class women. Synopsis Meri is newly married, pregnant, and standing on the cusp of her life as a wife and mother, recognizing with some terror the gap between reality and expectation. Delia wife of the two-term liberal senator Tom Naughton is Meri's new neighbor in the adjacent New England town house. Tom's chronic infidelity has been an open secret in Washington circles, but despite the complexity of their relationship, the bond between them remains strong. Soon Delia and Meri find themselves leading strangely parallel lives, as they both reckon with the contours and mysteries of marriage: one refined and abraded by years of complicated intimacy, the other barely begun. With precision and a rich vitality, Sue Miller beloved and bestselling author of While I Was Gone brings us a highly charged, superlative novel about marriage and forgiveness. The New York Times - Judith Warner I won't reveal how the final betrayal occurs, but will just say that in this particular moment Miller plays her hand in a masterly fashion. Shock, deceit, desire and despair come together at once in a way that feels simply like fate. In that remarkable bit of novelistic choreography, I saw in Miller what her fans have always seen: a clever storyteller with a penchant for the unexpected and a talent for depicting the bizarre borderline acts, the unfortunate boundary crossings and the regrettable instances of excessive self-indulgence that can destroy a world in a blink. Biography: Sue Miller is an expert in limning the pain of endings, but if this were the extent of her talents, she probably would not be as successful as she is. In Miller's books, one broken relationship often leads to the development of another. Her stories may not offer pat answers and perfect love stories, but readers find something more rewarding in the end.
