Novelist KAYE GIBBONS. She's the author of several acclaimed novels: Ellen Foster and Charms for the Easy Life. One reviewer says "Gibbon's brilliance lies in examining with unsentimental tenderness a family poised on the brink of disaster." GIBBONS has a new novel, Sights Unseen (Putnam) about a girl's life with her manic-depressive mother. GIBBONS herself has the illness, and she'll talk with Terry about that.
