The project was modest, some fifteen or twenty pages recalling, in particular, her dear friend's \"verbal wit.\" But the search through her files for written memories of Saul turned up a wealth of compelling material of all types-memoirs, short stories, journal entries and correspondence-stretching across some forty years. Thus what began as a handful of anecdotes and witticisms concerning a single friendship grew into a fragmented yet detailed portrait of an exceptional life, presented here as a collection of excerpts from Muriel's many, many files.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67820499730720,"sku":"USED1436354773","price":44.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71t15VTqysL.jpg?v=1792197129","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-ca\/products\/excerpts-1436354773-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
