Read this quickly, and thought the latter part was more interesting. Pollitt’s account of her parents’ experience in the Communist Party and growing up in Brooklyn had a certain resonance that the early essays lacked.
Beautifully written, too.

Great chapters on Paris and Atlanta so far. It reminds me of City Life.

Interesting for its descriptions of Colette as much as the narratives of Paris.
A story about "The Pharmacist's Mate" — 6 years ago
A curiosity, nothing more than a novella really. She intersperses her attempts to get pregnant with her father’s diary when he was in the Navy. The simplicity of the tale highlights the the circle of life themes.

The ending was unsatisfying, but it was still a worthwhile read. The description of the stresses of NYC life were especially accurate.
