Welcome Home: A Memoir with Selected Photographs and Letters | Lucia Berlin
4 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
A compilation of sketches, photographs, and letters, Welcome Home is an essential nonfiction companion to the stories by Lucia Berlin Before Lucia Berlin died, she was working on a book of previously unpublished autobiographical sketches called Welcome Home. The work consisted of more than twenty chapters that started in 1936 in Alaska and ended (prematurely) in 1966 in southern Mexico. In our publication of Welcome Home, her son Jeff Berlin is filling in the gaps with photos and letters from her eventful, romantic, and tragic life. From Alaska to Argentina, Kentucky to Mexico, New York City to Chile, Berlins world was wide. And the writing here is, as weve come to expect, dazzling. She describes the places she lived and the people she knew with all the style and wit and heart and humor that readers fell in love with in her stories. Combined with letters from and photos of friends and lovers, Welcome Home is an essential nonfiction companion to A Manual for Cleaning Women and Evening in Paradise.

Marketed as "an essential nonfiction companion to the stories by Lucia Berlin", I did not find it so. Although she was working on this at the time of her death, this is very much a mash-mash of material and not finished in any sense of the word. It was too unfinished, sparse and disorganized for my tastes and, being just raw material, begged for both fleshing out and culling. #netgalley
