The World According to Coleen

Autor Coleen Grissom
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 oct 2015
In a collection of musings that is as much historical record as it is memoir, Coleen Grissom provides a unique view of life on and off an American university campus. As an administrator and faculty member at Trinity University in San Antonio for over five decades, Grissom has seen the feminist movement take hold, the sexual revolution take off, and the tragic deaths of students, friends, and family. Her honest, witty, and acerbic words have urged students, their parents, and the community at large to become lifelong readers and to aspire to a life well-lived.

Recenzii

“A sharp eye, a sharper tongue, a mordant wit and a penchant for telling it like it is...This grande dame of letters pulls no punches and warns us of her unceasing 'forthright and straightforward' approach on topics ranging from the beginning of the school year to the winter of her life.” — San Antonio Express-News

Notă biografică

Coleen Grissom is a professor of English at Trinity University and the author of The World According to Coleen and A Novel Approach to Life. A faculty member at Trinity for more than fifty years, she has received “honorary alumna” status and a scholarship in her honor. As dean of students and later vice president for student affairs, she has mentored, counseled, and influenced the lives of thousands of students. Though still teaching full time at Trinity and leading discussions of contemporary fiction in two literary excursions for "more mature" students, she resides in the Texas Hill Country, where her toy poodles, a rescued schnauzer stray, and her indoor cats enslave her.
