Shameless Plug for Laurie Colwin Tribute at the New Haven Review

Miss Edith has many obsessions, but very high on the list is the oeuvre of Laurie Colwin.
So she is very happy to be able to tell her readers that a small magazine, the New Haven Review, has decided to publish a collection of tribute essays in honor of Colwin. The contributors are all impressive in their own rights, and include: Deborah Eisenberg (who wrote one of my all-time favorite stories, Rafe's Coat), Anna Quindlen, Thisbe Nissen (author of the high-quality Colwin ripoff The Good People of New York), Colwin's daughter Rosa Jurjevics, and Willard Spiegelman.

The New Haven Review can be purchased for a few bucks -- visit www.newhavenreview.com for details.
