The Guess Jeans Fight of 1984

I haven't become so immediately caught up in or so compelled by a book in ages…Kelly Corrigan's lightning-fast ability to establish that rare, mysterious bond between book and reader overwhelmed me. There are all sorts of things to be said about her bravery, and about what she can explain to many of us about illness, but this is a wonderful book about being alive.

— Robb Forman Dew, author of The Truth of the Matter and The Time of Her Life

The Middle Place is inspiring, luminous, and true. Reading this memoir, I felt like an honorary member of the Corrigan family . . . Kelly Corrigan is a wonderful writer.

—Luanne Rice, author of What Matters Most

Kelly Corrigan has a great sense of humor, an honest voice, and a brilliant way of telling it like it is—but that's just for starters. It's her heart that really counts. The Middle Place is a love letter to family and home and life.

—Linda Greenlaw, author of The Hungry Ocean and Slipknot
