Bøger af Debra Monroe

Existing creative nonfiction anthologies don't reflect the current cultural landscape. This anthology, featuring essays in forms both traditional and innovative, showcases the genre today. With essays by established and emerging writers, it mirrors the rich panoply of the current American experience.

Reading On the Outskirts of Normal at times feels like driving through an unwieldy thunderstorm at night on the unlit country roads that snake their way to Debra Monroe's house in the woods; readers will feel her exhaustion but will be buoyed by her ever-present faith and fiery love.

NEWFANGLED is the funny and poignant story of a woman's quest to find a physical and emotional home.

A misfit in Spooner, Wisconsin, with its farms, bars, and strip joints, Debra Monroe leaves to earn a degree, then another, and another, and builds a career. Both the story of her steady rise into the professional class and a parallel history of unsuitable exes, this memoir reminds us how accidental even a good life can be.
