The Long Rowing Unto Morningby Norman Lock
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In this, his fifth full-length book, Norman Lock paints the portrait of a lonely everywoman, a plain Jane who spends days pushing a mop and nights drinking tea, sitting her sadness on her elbow "by the window looking out. Out, where all is hurrying over the rainy streets." Lock paints the portrait of an "old woman with a cracked face" who, as a child, was teased to tears. Now, years later, in the last phase of her life, she is preparing for her own long rowing into death. About the AuthorNorman Lock is a writer of fiction, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is a playwright whose work has been staged internationally. The House of Correction was recognized by the Los Angeles Times as among the best of 1988 and 1994, for its revival and was called the best new play of the 1996 Edinburgh Theatre Festival. His radio dramas, in translation, have been broadcast by WDR and NDR, Germany. His recent books include A History of the Imagination (Fiction Collective Two, 2004.) He is also the author of Land of the Snow Men by George Belden (Calameri Press, 2005) and Cirque du Calder – Jules Cuiff’s Reminiscence of Alexander Calder’s 'Circus'.
