Found an old post by Ellen Meister, author of Secret Confessions of the Applewood PTA, in which she describes meeting Richard Yates while working for a literary agent. She even shares a scanned inscription from him in autographed copy of Liars in Love.
We developed a little phone friendship over the months I was there, and he eventually sent me an autographed copy of "Liars in Love." The book has been lost in the bowels of my basement for the past nine years, and I'm happy to announce that I just found it. Of course, I'm delighted to share it with you.
