Loud and Clear
Anna Quindlen
|
In LOUD and CLEAR (Random House; On Sale Date: April 6, 2004; Publication Date: April 13, 2004; $24.95), Anna Quindlen, one of America's favorite novelists and a Pulitzer-Prize winning columnist, once again gives readers opinions, insights and reflections about current events and modern life.
With her trademark insight and her special ability to convey the impact public events have on ordinary lives, Quindlen here combines commentary on American society and the world at large with reflections on being a woman, a writer, and a mother, In these pieces, first written for Newsweek and The New York Times, LOUD and CLEAR takes on topics ranging from social change to raising children, from the political and emotional aftermath of September 11 to personal values, from the impact of global events to the growth that can be gained by spending summer days staring into the middle distance. In LOUD and CLEAR, as in Living Out Loud and Thinking Out Loud, Quindlen is one of today's most important communicators on social and cultural matters, and prompts readers to look at themselves and the world, serving as a catalyst for both social and personal change.
About the Author: Anna Quindlen is the bestselling author of four novels (Blessings, Black and Blue, One True Thing, and Object Lessons) and four nonfiction books (A Short Guide to a Happy Life), Living Out Loud, Thinking Out Loud, and How Reading Changed My Life). She has also written two children's books (The Tree That Came to Stay and Happily Ever After). Her New York Times column, "Public and Private" won the Pulitzer Prize in 1992. Her column now appears every other week in Newsweek.
