{"product_id":"every-fathers-daughter-margaret-mcmullan-9781620540138","title":"Every Father's Daughter: Twenty-Four Women Writers Remember Their Fathers","description":"\"What is it about the relationship between fathers and daughters that provokes so much exquisite tenderness, satisfying communion, longing for more, idealization from both ends, followed often if not inevitably by disappointment, hurt, and the need to understand and forgive, or to finger the guilt of not understanding and loving enough?\" writes Phillip Lopate, in his introduction to this collection of 24 personal essays by women writers writing about their fathers. The editor, Margaret McMullan, is herself a distinguished novelist and educator. About half of these essays were written by invitation for this anthology; others were selected by Ms. McMullan and her associate, Philip Lopate, who provides an introduction. Contributors include many well-known writers Alice Munro, Jayne Anne Phillips, Alexandra Styron, Ann Hood, Bobbie Ann Mason, Maxine Hong Kingston among them and writers perhaps less well-known but no less cogent, inventive, perceptive, questioning or loving of their fathers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret McMullan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1620540134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781620540138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McPherson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.76w x 0.99d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2015 pg. 73\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/26\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/06\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2015 pg. 5\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2015 pg. 83","brand":"Margaret McMullan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46334503878911,"sku":"9781620540138","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4b233307-319e-49eb-8ee3-dcf343fc1b03.jpg?v=1731467002","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/every-fathers-daughter-margaret-mcmullan-9781620540138","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
