Lynne Sharon Schwarz is the acclaimed author of many books, including Ruined by Reading, Disturbances in the Field, and In the Family Way. She lives in New York City.
[Schwartz] shares her humanity with her readers. These essays are candid, refreshingly modest. --Diane White, @lt;i@gt;The Boston Globe@lt;/i@gt;@lt;br@gt;@lt;br@gt; In @lt;i@gt;Face to Face@lt;/i@gt; . . . Schwartz resembles one of her fictional characters: a sensitive family-oriented semibohemian whose tastes are literary but refreshingly unstuffy and whose sense of humor tends toward the sly and offbeat. --Diane Cole, @lt;i@gt;The New York Times Book Review@lt;/i@gt;@lt;br@gt;@lt;br@gt; Marvelous. . . . Near-flawless reflections on experiences generously savored, couched in an ever-inventive prose. -Michael Upchurch, @lt;i@gt;Seattle Times@lt;/i@gt;
