Thanks for the kind words, Anne. And thanks for the friendship here, David. I've only published one novel--About Grace, so if you want long-form narrative, that's your best bet. Both The Shell Collector and Memory Wall are collections of short stories. And Four Seasons in Rome is a memoir about living in Rome for a year with newborn twins. More about info about each book is here: http://www.anthonydoerr.com/books/
Thanks much for being a reader!
Yours, Anthony
In regard to David's post: My two favorite books of Anthony's are: The Shell Collectors, and The Memory Wall.These are two of the best books that I have EVER had the privilege to read.
I highly recommend both!
Anne
