To break free she installed herself in the window of a bookstore with her typewriter and invited passersby to ask her anything they wanted. She found that responding immediately to unexpected questions freed her to write, and gave her joy, so for ten years she sat in bookstore windows in New York, New Mexico and Oregon, answering with grace and wit such questions as:WHAT IS THE ANSWER TO LIFE, THE UNIVERSE, AND EVERYTHING?WHY ARE THE RICH SO RUDE?WHY IS LIFE SUCH A BITCH?WHY WONT MY PARENTS BUY ME A HORSE?HOW MANY ROACHES ARE THERE IN NEW YORK?WHY DO PEOPLE FOLLOW THE GRATEFUL DEAD?WHAT HAPPENS TO ERASED WORDS?WHY ME?\"At first I thought it wasa gimmickbut Ms. Hirlimans impromptu answerswere as good as most books you pick up. Each reply was fresh and gave you a little bit of philosophy to take home.\"Lisa Green, The Wall Street Journalthe Writer in the Window is aperipatetic troubador with an electric typewriter and a high-voltage imagination.Her answers are always interesting, often funny.Roy Sorrels, Writers Digest\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51940186292512,"sku":"NEW0595004156","price":17.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/dear-writer-in-the-window-0595004156","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
