	Barnes & Noble.com - Loud and Clear - Anna Quindlen - Hardcover - Bargain
		Quindlen is at the top of her game when she turns her eagle eye on the tiny threads that make up the fiber of domestic life.
		Quindlen divides the essays by theme-heart, mind, soul, voice and body-and while the individual pieces shine, the overviews of each topic provide thin explanations for why they are grouped this way.
		Essays in the abridgment were chosen by Quindlen and are uncut, delivered in her own kitchen table voice (the listener envisions a cigar dangling from her mouth).

	Amazon.com: Loud and Clear: Books: Anna Quindlen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Quindlen's firm, understated voice reads from her NEW YORK TIMES and NEWSWEEK columns on topics as diverse as celebrity ("hell hath no fury like an idealist disenchanted"), alcohol ("the drug that protests it isn't"), mothers and children, 9/11, 2001's crushing blows, and the abuse scandals of the Catholic Church.
		Anna Quindlen is one of America's best-known novelists and a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist, so it's no mystery her Loud And Clear commentary on American society and life would translate well to audio, with her exceptional upbeat style and personal voice.
		Anna Quindlen --- or perhaps someone who works for her publisher --- seems to have a curious affinity for the word "loud." Her last two books of collected columns were respectively titled LIVING OUT LOUD and THINKING OUT LOUD.

		Quindlen believes that when your success looks good to the world but doesn't feel good in your heart, it isn't success at all.
		I have loved Anna's writing since her days as a NY Times columnist, where her skills for honest reporting and psychological insight always made her stand out amid the egos and political agendas around her.
		This latest book is a great addition to her body of work, as she dives into the moral muck of today's womanhood, where the choices between work and home life are difficult and ultimately unsolvable--something has to be lost in the equation.

	Royce Carlton - Anna Quindlen Novelist Newsweek Columnist
		While a columnist for The New York Times (1981-1994), Quindlen became only the third woman in the paper’s history to write a regular column for its influential Op-Ed page when she began the nationally-syndicated “Public and Private.” A collection of those columns, Thinking Out Loud, was a national bestseller.

		In her lectures, Quindlen provides audiences with insight into today’s issues, ranging from the corporate world’s responsibility to families and the future of journalism to medical ethics and the challenges of raising children.

		Quindlen's column will alternate with George Will's in the newsweekly (she succeeds the late Meg Greenfield), but I hope hers are not meant as the liberal counterpoint to his astringent right-leaning columns.

		But the real star of the project remains former New York Times everyday-life columnist Anna Quindlen, who quit her top-dog job to write novels (and who took time off from college to nurse her own dying mother).
