Harriet Doerr's first novel, Stones for Ibarra, was published by Viking in 1984 when she was seventy-three years old. That novel of Mexico was universally acclaimed by the critics and won the 1985 American Book Award for First Fiction. Doerr's second novel, Consider This Senora, came out in 1993 and also received glorious reviews.
Her first collection of stories and anecdotal pieces, The Tiger in the Grass, reveals the same startling sensitivity and sculpted prose that made Stones for Ibarra a runaway bestseller. In these fifteen works, Doerr explores the magical power of memory as it harvests experience, bringing us a wealth of unforgettable characters.
