Signed by the author and the Illustrator on the title page. Author's business card and author's bookmark laid in. From a review by Mary Conklin posted on-line: Mary Gentry's first book might be Quite Contrary but she is decidedly not. I had the privilege of catching up with this Boston Harbor resident and chatting with her about her new book her family and her love of all things ordinary. Longtime Olympia resident Mary Gentry delights readers with tales of simplicity in her new book. After nearly thirty years of practicing law in Olympia Gentry retired in order to "have time to do some ‘other things.' Her first book Quite Contrary is complete and her second Too Far from the Tree a series of stories about family relationships was published in 2015. Gentry mourned the loss of op-ed greats such as Ellen Goodman and Anna Quindlen and like these writers Gentry chronicles the connections between relationships life events and that which is really the meat of life. Her genre of choice is "the personal essay" a style she describes as "part memoir part commentary mainly musings." The genre suits her and the voice in her writing resonates with warmth humor and intelligence. Longtime friends Gentry describes Williams as her "co-conspirator" on the project. Williams has been creating her unique carved linoleum block prints for almost twelve years. Williams' art is the perfect complement to Gentry's personal essays. Mary Gentry's essays about the ordinary life and how the simplest things in life are often the most significant is a delightful read. It is not to be missed. There are no trolls in my life. I am solidly grounded in the here and now. My imagination is pretty much maxed out once I have dealt with the leftovers in my fridge. Still there is much in my life and that of my friends and family that intrigues and amuses me that I want to capture and share. The subtle seemingly insignificant events in life are the ones that interest me. Wry or wistful it is the small stuff that grabs my attention and inspires my writing. This is as true of the nuances of relationships as it is of the surprises I find in my garden. "To Far from the Tree" is a collection of personal essays and stories that will resonate with the readers. The tie that binds the chapters of "Too Far from the Tree" together is family - five generations of my gene pool with me in the middle. The ties that bind my family are sometimes touching often humorous tales such as my mother's legendary recycling efforts including her egg-carton lampshades still in existence and my daughter's insistence on finding out where she was before she was conceived. Others - such as the story of my Depression-era grandmother's no-nonsense quest to get her brood of children a college education - are peppered with personalities. Writing about them has been a joyful journey back to my roots. I hope by reading them you will also find your way home. Dover Point paperback

2022233643Portland OR: Image Comics 2022. Kickstarter hardcover edition first printing. Illustrated glazed boards over blue cloth. Fine. In this gleefully grotesque original graphic novel two rival mega-corporations wage a brutal tug-of-war over the shattered remains of our solar system. Crafted in seven anarchic chapters the narrative blends pulpy action sharply skewering satire and gleeful absurdity—“an unholy lovechild of Verhoeven and Asimov†Image Comics 2022. Initially conceived and funded as a Kickstarter project by Roy and Gentry Grip of the Kombinat earned early acclaim for its audacious design and thematic punch leading to this wide-release edition by Image Comics. Rendered in gritty black-and-white the work draws on dystopian traditions with a frenetic visual style and episodic storytelling. Roy’s world-building exudes rough charisma while both creators alternate writing and art in a jagged exuberant rhythm. A fierce unfiltered vision of sci-fi collapse and corporate absurdity.<br /> <br /> Roy and Gentry-signed publisher's card laid in. Image Comics unknown
