Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A New York Times Bestselling Author -- Kinsey and Me has two parts: nine Kinsey stories (1986-1993), each a gem of detection; and the And Me stories, written in the decade after her mother died. Together, they show just how much of Kinsey is a distillation of her creator's past even as they reveal a child who, free of parental interventions in a troubled family, read everything and roamed everywhere. Enriching the way we see Kinsey and know Sue, these stories are deeply affecting.
