- Synopsis
- These sequential meditations by one of our most skillful writers constitute a unique genre—part autobiography, part introspection, part observation, part narrative—in which a life is continually re-examined in the light of experience and time. Taking personal experience as his core, McConkey builds upon it to reveal connections and create an encompassing "court of memory." We come to know him, his family, his friends, and in the process we recognize elements of our own lives as well. Essays written from 1960 to 1981 are organized in two sections: "Crossroads," and "The Stranger at the Crossroads."
