In The Pharmacist's Mate, she writes of her father's death and her own attempts to become pregnant, weaving in excerpts from her father's World War II journal-written while he was a pharmacist's mate on the Liberty ship George E. Pickett. Fusselman creates a work both startlingly real and deeply funny-all wrapped up in writing so clever and warm it will leave you feeling that everything will be okay.]]> 10400 3.86 294 50 2001 0 0 false Thu Apr 16 11:25:02 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 16 11:25:02 -0700 2009
