For Rouenna NUNEZ, SIGRID
United States Farrar, Straus & Giroux Inc 2001 0374254303 / 9780374254308 First Edition
Good , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. "After my first book was published, I received some letters". So begins Sigrid Nunez's haunting novel about the poignant and unusual friendship between a writer and a retired army nurse who seeks her out decades after their childhood in the same housing project. Among the letters the narrator receives is one from a Rouenna Zycinski, recalling their old connection and asking if they can meet. Though fascinated by the stories Rouenna tells about her life as a combat nurse in Vietnam, the narrator flatly declines her request that they collaborate on a memoir. It is only later, in the aftermath of Rouenna's shocking death, that the narrator is drawn to write about her friend - and her friend's war. Writing Rouenna's story becomes all - consuming, at once a necessity and the narrator's only consolation. FOR ROUENNA, an unforgettable novel about truth, memory and unexpected heroism by one of the most gifted writers of her generation, is also a remarkable and surprising new look at war.

Naked Sleeper NUNEZ, SIGRID
United States HarperCollins Publishers Inc 1998 0060928611 / 9780060928612
Near Fine , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Naked Sleeper is about a love triangle between Nona (a person who can't sleep), her husband Roy, and Lyle, a married writer Nona meets at a writers' retreat where she has gone to work on a book about her parents' lives, specifically her abandonment by her father as a child. Nona's memoir becomes part of the text of Naked Sleeper itself so the reader watches several stories unfold simultaneously: that of Nona's relationship with Roy and Lyle, with her mother Rosalind who hates the idea of her daughter's book, and with her phantom father, a man who Nona comes to understand and forgive the moment she delves into his past. Naked Sleeper is very much a love story: of women for men, but also of mothers for daughters, of parents for children.
