    Frequently Asked Questions

    lPL Youth DIvIsIon: Ask the Author I think it is my grown children, all of them grown now, who have caused me to expand my view. One ..- of my sons is a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force; as a mother during the Gulf War, I was newly stunned into fear for the world and a heightened awareness of the necessity to find a way to end conflict. One of my daughters has become disabled as a result of a disease of the central nervous system; through her, I have a new and passionate awareness of the importance of human connections that transcend physical differences. And I have grandchildren now. For them, I feel a greater urgency to do what I can to convey the knowledge that we live intertwined on this planet and that our future as human beings depends upon our caring more, for one another. contributed byLois Lowry Houghton Mifflin Company 222 Berkely Street Boston, MA 02116 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS I. Did you like writing AUTUMN STREET? I especially like writing this book for two reasons: one, the fact that it was autobiographical, so most of the people in the book were real, were people I loved greatly in the past (most now dead); and the setting was a real place, the place that permeates my childhood and to which I return again and again in memory. Secondly, I liked the particular voice of the book: the voice of an adult, a grown woman, but seeing through the child's eyes. It's a particularly unusual method of writing (most books writing of a child's perceptions try to use the child's voice; most using the adult voice then see the childhood world filtered through adult eyes) and it makes the book a difficult one for the publisher to categorize: children's book? adult book??? I really value my publisher _ Houghton Mifflin_ because they don't make me adjust my writing to their marketing needs.
