<DIV><b>A National Book Award nominee: Hortense Calisher&rsquo;s autobiography captures the making of a distinct literary voice</b></div><DIV></div><BR>Although Hortense Calisher&rsquo;s fiction often draws on autobiographical elements, <i>Herself</i> is a disciplined documentation of the award-winning author&rsquo;s life and work. She surveys the various decades and landscapes she has inhabited, mining her family&rsquo;s Jewish lineage, discussing her children, exploring her greatest artistic influences, and describing her work process in a brave and bold work of autobiography. <i>Herself </i>is a rich collage of essays, reviews, recollections, and observations that unite the writer and the person.&#160;&#160;
