Books with author Marjorie Kellogg

Once there were three patients who met in the hospital and decided to live together. This most unlikely trio sets up housekeeping in a ramshackle house in the shade of a ramshackle banyan tree...Junie Moon, Arthur and Warren walk through the American landscape like cautionary wraiths, reminders of the...ravishment and madness of life...That they do this with a smile, and that we can smile at them, is cause for celebration.

In this almost fable-like manner Marjorie Kellogg begins her wonderful and deeply affecting novel of love among the wounded. "Tell Me That You Love Me, Junie Moon" is in the simplest sense a love story, in which humor and artistry triumph over a seemingly inauspicious setting and dramatis personae. On its surface, the novel is the story of three people whom life has treated cruelly. The adventures of this strange trio with a variety of people from the outside world make up the novel.
