I'm pleased to announce my hybrid memoir, just out, Tree and Fruit: a Writer's Life and Work. 

Marvyne Jenoff's first book was published in 1972; Tree and Fruit is her seventh. This hybrid memoir has two parts: TREE follows her life growing up in an unusual Jewish family in Winnipeg against the backdrop of the social history of the 1940s and 50s. From the early 1960s in Toronto, it continues with her development as a writer. FRUIT brings together the best of her previously published short fiction and essays. 

Quotations from the back cover:
from TREE:

▪ I fell in love with King Lear's fool. (from "Seeing")
▪ You must never, never do that again! (from "Opposites") 

from FRUIT:

▪ I could tell by the way his body tensed and his voice pierced the air that he was making up new poetry. That wasn't appropriate behaviour in a parking lot. (from "An Evening of Poetry") 
▪ Hercules wore a lion skin, but people say one gets treated with more respect in a blazer and skirt. (from "Hercules by My Side")
