Lit
I woke up to Kerri Miller interviewing Mary Karr about her new memoir, which I didn’t even know existed. It’s called Lit and it’s sort of the third installment in a trilogy of memoirs (The Liar’s Club and Cherry being the first two). I am going to run, not walk, to my nearest local bookseller to get this book if there’s even a slim chance that Karr’s ex-boyfriend, David Foster Wallace, shows up in it. Plus, some of it takes place in the Twin Cities and it’s about Karr’s struggle with addiction and spirituality. Sold!

I loved Cherry…I keep meaning to re-read it.

Thanks to Cherry, I still don’t use quotation marks when I’m writing memoir.
