| General Note: | "P.S. insights, interviews & more ..."--Page 4 of cover. |
| Summary, etc.: | "The History of Great Things tells the entwined stories of Lois, a daughter of the Depression Midwest who came to New York to transform herself into an opera star, and her daughter, Elizabeth, an aspiring writer who came of age in the 1970s and ’80s in the forbidding shadow of her often-absent, always larger-than-life mother...Elizabeth chronicles the events of her mother’s life, and in turn Lois recounts her daughter’s story--pulling back the curtain on lifelong secrets, challenging and interrupting each other, defending their own behavior, brandishing or swallowing their pride, and, ultimately, coming to understand each other in a way that feels both extraordinary and universal"--Amazon.com. |
