This memoir stands out as a beautifully written account of a mostly happy, mostly normal, fully real life at once both ordinary and extraordinary. Sheirer explores intensely personal experiences and relationships with humor, surprise, awe, suspense, and deep insight. With the depth of a memoir and the flow of a novel, Sheirer chronicles how his simple youth of farm, sports, school, nature, and family led him to an unlikely adulthood as an author and college professor.

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition (NAP). Once listed, this will be the Only signed copy for sale on the Internet. The inscription is on the title page. It reads 'For Judy -- Thanks for reading! Best, J.S.' As you can see from the first photo, it was a 2004 Santa Fe Writers Project Literary Award Finalist. The author Kevin O'Hara clearly agreed. On the rear cover he writes 'A brilliant and delightful showcase of boyhood memories from a rich and varied upbringing. This memoir sings with honesty, humor, and grace.' The book is in very good condition. The covers are very clean. They have a little bit of thin creasing including one just off the bottom corner of the front cover. It does not impact the pages within the book. The spine has a very slight forward lean. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The interior of the book is in exceptional condition. I scrolled through several times without finding any instances of soiling. I'm not seeing any creasing at all. There are no markings. No attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. Inscribed by Author(s). Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 003625
