Book Clearing House

In the Time of My Life: Selected Writings is a collection of Joseph Sutton's best writing over a period of fifty years. This compilation of stories and chapters is extracted from Sutton's eight books, including selected chapters from his three novels. Morning Pages: The Almost True Story of My Life is about a writer finding a way to break out of a writer's block. A Class of Leaders shows how a teacher empowers his inner-city students by giving them a chance to teach. And Highway Sailor: A Rollicking American Journey has to do with a man hitting the highways in his VW bus in search of himself and America. Of the three story collections, The Immortal Mouth and Other Stories is derived from the first half of Sutton's fifty-year writing career. The Bar of Soap and Other Stories comes from the second half of his writing career. The Life and Death of Abraham Massry and Other Stories deals with Sutton's Syrian Jewish roots. There's also a memoir, Father and Son: Thirty Years of Growing Up Together, with passages about Sutton's thirty-year relationship with his son Raymond. And lastly, snippets are taken from San Francisco Giants: A Fan's Journal 2010, 2012, 2014 that chronicle the Giants winning three World Series championships in five years. Put all these stories and chapters together and what you have, after fifty years of writing, is a mother lode of revelations, insights, and wisdom from the pen of Joseph Sutton.
