"Some Writer" is brilliant!
The late E.B. White is legendary, but Melissa Sweet, also a resident of Maine, has brought his brilliance to a wonderful new level. I've read it three times, and don't dare to mark it with my name, as each page is a work of art. I highly recommend it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
