Reviews
Cynthia D. Grantwinner of the PEN/Norma Klein Award and author of Mary Wolf and The White HorseFresh, funny, and touching, Kelly Easton's The Life History of a Star is as appealing as its heroine., Annette Curtis Klauseauthor of Blood and Chocolate and The Silver KissI really enjoyed The Life History of a Star. I gobbled it down! I recognize myself in Kristin Folger and I recognize all these kids; I knew them in high school. This is a compelling fragile mix of funny and hurt -- a powerful portrayal of loss, and of a family in grieving, from the point of view of a sharp-witted teenaged girl, which creates a humorous, yet touching, and altogether real narrative. Tension and mystery are maintained in the midst of the description of everyday life, and the audience can laugh yet also read between the lines and sense the scary depths under the surface. I'll look forward to reading more by Kelly Easton., Ellen Wittlingerauthor of Hard Love, a Michael L. Printz Honor Book and winner of the Lambda Literary AwardEaston is an irreverent and irresistible new voice in YA fiction. She balances wry sarcasm and hilarious observation with a story of family tragedy -- without once losing her equilibrium. What a fabulous character Kristin Folger is, so raw and so real.

Synopsis
When Donald Justice wrote in "On a Picture by Burchfield" that "art keeps long hours," he might have been describing his own life. Although he early on struggled to find a balance between his life and art, the latter became a way of experiencing his life more deeply. He found meaning in human experience by applying traditional religious language to his artistic vocation. Central to his work was the translation of the language of devotion to a learned American vernacular. Art not only provided him with a wealth of intrinsically worthwhile experiences but also granted rich and nuanced ways of experiencing, understanding, and being in the world. For Donald Justice--recipient of some of poetry's highest laurels, including the Pulitzer Prize, the Bollingen Prize, and the Lannan Literary Award for Poetry--art was a way of life. Because Jerry Harp was Justice's student, his personal knowledge of his subject--combined with his deep understanding of Justice's oeuvre--works to remarkable advantage in For Us, What Music? Harp reads with keen intelligence, placing each poem within the precise historical moment it was written and locating it in the context of the literary tradition within which Justice worked. Throughout the text runs the narrative of Justice's life, tying together the poems and informing Harp's interpretation of them. For Us, What Music? grants readers a remarkable understanding of one of America's greatest poets.
