Cydney chadwick is a fine writer
I lost a good part of the day when this book - the one that has won a
prize - arrived. I heard a crash on the mat quite early while I was still
listening to the radio
A parcel from Avec is always worth opening so I took it back to bed. All the
chairs have books on them.
And that was it,
I opened _Flesh and Bone_ and couldn't stop reading it till I fell out the
other end. Personally I couldnt give a damn about the prize, except for once
a prize has gone to someone I am glad it has gone to; but I do hope you'll
try to get the book

Subject: Chadwick Wins Book Award
With great pleasure, I announce that Cydney Chadwick, of Avec Books, has
been awarded the prize for best short story collection for her book_Flesh &
Bone_. This award is given by the Independent Publishers of America. Her
book was chosen from 1,185 titles from 765 presses. I announce it to this
list because, while Chadwick writes prose, many of her readers are poets,
some on this list. It's worth adding that the title story is both
unsentimental and extremely moving. Congratulations, Cydney.
