What a tragedy that she was not, is not better known. Glad she is back in print and her words won't be lost forever. ( ) If there is calm to be found here it is the calm inside a pressure cooker before the valve is released, if there is prosperity it is the texture of observation with associated emotions. Do not look for serenity or an easy competence in the exploration of the 3rd quarter of the 20th century Jewish American take of the majority of stories or the title novella where the death of an engaging and ambitious philosopher is relived by his final lover. The most accepted of the bonds are with those who remain opaque to us, but accepted or not the bonds remain. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage restores to the literary canon an extraordinarily gifted writer, who was recognized as a major talent in the 1980s before all but disappearing from public view for decades ... With direct and powerful language in the tradition of Lucia Berlin, Kathleen Collins, and Grace Paley, Howland chronicles the tensions of her generation"--Dust jacket flap.
