Praise for A Story Teller's Story---

The American Portrait of the Artist.
-Charles Baxter

Probably unequaled . . . for the austerity of moral courage and sincerity of
conviction. . . . A book which should be read by every intelligent American.
---New York Times

In the field of literary autobiography, it stands practically alone in America.
---The Nation

The voice of the soliloquist . . . amplifies the drama of A Story Teller's Story, as does the persistent theme of escape, from an America of fact and factories, marketing and manufacturing, to the borderless Ohios of imagination and creation.
---From the introduction by Thomas Lynch
