Riverstone is delighted to share An American Childhood by Anne Dillard for our May Book Club pick. A book that instantly captured the hearts of readers across the country, it is Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Dillard's poignant, vivid memoir of growing up in Pittsburgh in the 1950s.

An American Childhood combines the child’s sense of wonder with the adult’s intelligence and is written in some of the finest prose that exists in contemporary America. It is a special sort of memoir that is entirely successful. This book is Annie Dillard’s best, a joyous ode to her own happy childhood
