When Melissa Jeanne Miller died in 1991 at the age of 35, she left behind the truncated career of an author whose work had deeply affected her teachers, editors, and fellow writers. "She is as close as I will ever get to significance in literature," wrote Stephen F. Austin University professor F. A. Rodewald. The collection includes her story, "Water Girl, 1967," winner of the American Literary Review's Short Fiction Award. The story "proclaims genius to me," said Rodewald, "Like nothing I have read since Dickinson. I still wonder where in heaven or hell she came from." This collection includes an introduction by editor-publisher William Van Doren.
