Book Recommendation
The Florist’s Daughter
By Patrica Hampl - $22.95, Harcourt Publishers
Local author Patricia Hampl, is one of America's premier memoirists. In this bittersweet memoir she recollects her parent's lives while sitting at her mother's deathbed. This is a wonderful story of mid-century St Paul and a recollection of that rare occurrence: a happy childhood.
