Nine Muses... and a Wife

by Clint Hull

Book Overview

An unnamed but fairly reliable author employs memoir, poetry, and fiction to identify nine women who influenced his life and contributed to his development as a writer: a young Japanese girl met during the occupation after World War II, a first love in college, a promiscuous woman in a room across the alley, an Austrian girl encountered on a pilgrimage to Lourdes, a first cousin in Vienna, a hospital nurse on the night shift, a captivating divorcee, a younger Viennese cousin, a poetess at a writers workshop. A story inspired by each of his muses rounds out the picture But what about his wife? Was Blake right in stating that a wife is not a muse? In the final section the author resolves this issue to his own satisfaction.
