I read A Prayer for the Dying a few years ago and loved it. I have been reading descriptions of your other novels on Amazon and now I know I have to read them all. I am from Pittsburgh. Just reading the description of Emily, Alone brought so much back to me; having watched many family members grow old in Pittsburgh. I am now growing old in California, but will enjoy a trip into my past when I get my hands on Emily, Alone.
P.S. We also had a summer home on Lake Chautauqua. I was born not far from there in Olean NY. Getting eerier by the moment…. Will read Wish You Were Here first.
