Media Reviews

Adroit and moving . . . has the quality of a rueful, ironic legend
--The New York Times

There is no use to mention the assurance and calm that Mr. Stegner brings to his first book--it has to be read to be believed.
--Saturday Review

I thought Remembering Laughter a perfect little novel, clean, swift and assured, and I can still feel the weight of the disaster in it.
--Wendell Berry

Wallace Stegner (1909-1993) was the author of, among other novels, All the Little Live Things (winner of a Commonwealth Club Gold Medal), Angle of Repose (winner of the Pulitzer Prize), and The Spectator Bird (winner of the National Book Award). His nonfiction includes The Sound of Mountain Water, The Uneasy Chair: A Biography of Bernard DeVoto, and Where the Bluebird Sings to the Lemonade Springs: Living and Writing in the West. Three of his short stories won O. Henry Prizes, and in 1980 he received the Robert Kirsch Award from the Los Angeles Times for his lifetime literary achievements.
