Produktbeschreibung
This unique literary anthology presents the childhood writings of some of America's greatest authors-including Stephen King, Joyce Carol Oates and more. Most kid write stories. A few of them grow up to be successful authors. Before Stephen King createdCarrie, he created Jhonathan, at age nine. And before there was Rabbit Angstrom, there was Manuel Citarro, the detective in John Updike's hard-boiled mystery, written at fourteen. BeforeJurassic Park, there was young Michael Crichton's story about the mysteriously wounded man lying unattended in the street. Editor Paul Mandelbaum persuaded our most popular American authors to share their childhood writings and their treasured photographs. What he's gathered is a fascinating, delightful collection of writing and early snapshots that reveal young minds at work, wrestling with early versions of ideas that were to take hold of their writings in later years. Of course, the young Madeline L'Engle would wonder about space and the meaning of eternity. Of course, Margaret Atwood would question conventional female behavior, arguing for the right to smoke cigars. Other writers featured in this volume include Amy Tan, Paul Bowles, Michael Crichton, Ursula K. LeGuin, Tobias Wolff, and more.
