Inhaltsangabe

ROBERT AYRES CARTER is a widely published and versatile writer of fiction and non-fiction as well as a poet and playwright. He has written several books on publishing topics, the novel Manhattan Primitive, and two mystery novels: Casual Slaughters and Final Edit. He is also the author of a biography, Buffalo Bill Cody: The Man Behind the Legend, and five volumes of memoirs: Sunday's Child, Nobody Yet Knows Who I Am, Tell Me the Truth About Love, Somewhere I Have Never Travelled, and I'll Go No More A-Roving. A native Midwesterner, he now lives in Richmond, Virginia, with his wife Reade Johnson and their mixed-breed rescue dog Rolfe. Praise for Sunday's Child "Carter has written a memoir that captures the quintessential America that now seems to be slipping away from us. A real treat" - John Tebbel, author and journalist "Deeply moving . . . the book is a delight and of course you write like a dream . . . Congratulations on what I believe we used to call a great read, and more than that, a deeply moving record" - Ellen Feldman, author of Lucy and Scottsboro: A Novel Praise for Somewhere I Have Never Traveled "This fourth volume of Robert Ayers Carter's autobiography takes the reader back to the 1970s. From the outside, Carter's life seems conventional: he was an executive in the world of publishing and advertising, commuting between Long Island and Manhattan. Setting this work apart from the ordinariness of that sort of life is the clarity of his unflinching revelation of his private affairs, emotions, and thoughts. His struggles to become a writer of novels, his self-doubts, and his emotional and physical involvement with many women, and the collapse of two marriages are all described vividly with the skill of the accomplished novelist. Perhaps most poignant of all are his descriptions of his sense of loss from his separation from his two sons" - James Scanlon, Professor Emeritus of History, Randolph-Macon College
