I will be forever grateful for the help I received from my writing group: Lucia Orth, Mary Wharff, Judy Bauer, and Mary O’Connell. Each read drafts and gave feedback that was both sharp and encouraging. I would also like to thank my wonderful editor at Riverhead, Sarah McGrath, for her insight and careful reading, as well as my agent, Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, for her continued encouragement and discernment. I’m very lucky to work with these talented women.
I would like to thank the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Kansas for giving me a semester off of teaching to focus on this project.
On the home front, several good friends stepped in to entertain Viv on days when I felt particularly frantic to finish a chapter. Anna Neill, Margaret Marco, Jason Slote, Barb Willis, Jill Cannon, Michelle Ward, Ken Jansen, and Gretchen Goodman-Jansen always returned Viv healthy and happy. Ben Eggleston, despite his own busy schedule, hung out with Viv
and
read drafts and always seemed happy to do so. Viv and I continue to benefit from his patience, his wit, and his thoughtfulness.
