The Narrow Door: A Memoir of Friendship by Paul Lisicky

4.0

At first I wasn't sure about this memoir. It spends a lot of time talking about writing, writers, and the dream of landing a tenure-track creative writing job at a university. Even for someone interested in all of those things, it tried my patience. But as I read on I found myself increasingly drawn into the story Lisicky tells, and the straightforward yet swirling way in which he tells it.
