About

In A Step from Death, Woiwode addresses his son as the intimate heir to the writer’s interior. Through a series of memories, Woiwode leads us to his contemplation on his proximity to death. As Kirkus Reviews rightly said of Woiwode’s previous memoir, What I Think I Did, this new memoir is also a work of "purest sense and sensitivity."
