"What makes 'Written in the Stars' striking and quite wonderful is
the ease and sagacity with which Ms. Duncan writes about
adolescence (at an astonishingly young authorial age) and the
emotional resonance she creates with characters we will know only
briefly--for such is the nature of short stories."--Wall Street
Journal
An extraordinary look at the genesis of a great writer's career,
"Written in the Stars" is a collection of Lois Duncan's earliest
stories. composed from the ages of 13 through 22. From family
relationships, to the joy and angst of first love, to the struggles
of a young soldier returning from war with PTSD, this unique book,
whose stories originally appeared in magazines such as Seventeen
and American Girl, is a marvelous portrait of the depth and breadth
of Duncan's youthful work. As a special bonus, Lois has followed
each story with a brief essay describing her work and life at the
time the story was written. "Written in the Stars" is a must-have
addition to the library of work from this spectacular and
groundbreaking young adult author.
