Larry Kirshbaum and the whole terrific team at LJK Literary Management. (Special thanks to Jenny Arch for holding my feet to the fire, and to Molly Reese for always making sure things ran smoothly.)
Susanna Einstein, my irreplaceable agent, for taking me on and taking this book out to the world. You’re a miracle, Susanna. And I am blessed.
Susan Kamil, my brilliant editor, for guiding me through the process of giving up things I loved that didn’t work, and creating new stuff that did. And for keeping her word invariably.
Thanks also to Lynn Buckley for the unforgettable moment when I first glimpsed your altogether lovely cover design; to Susan M. S. Brown for meticulous copyediting; to Clare Swanson for making my part of the process less scary; to Sam Nicholson for telling me what to do next (and making sure I did it); and to Noah Eaker, Courtney Moran, and Vincent La Scala for handling details I never dreamed existed.
My deepest gratitude, now and always, to my offspring, Taylor, Amy, and Lori. You three are my best friends and my reason for everything.
ABOUT THE TYPE
This book was set in Sabon, a typeface designed by the well-known German typographer Jan Tschichold (1902-74). Sabon's design is based upon the original letterforms of Claude Garamond and was created specifically to be used for three sources: foundry type for hand composition, Linotype, and Monotype. Tschichold named his typeface for the famous Frankfurt typefounder Jacques Sabon, who died in 1580.
