Return to Perspectives Author-Editor Dialogs Karen Cushman and Dinah Stevenson Karen : I never really thought of myself as a particularly lucky person, but it was my great good fortune to be given to Dinah at the very beginning of my writing career. I am still hers. My agent and the late Dorothy Briley, editor in chief of Clarion Books, shared an apartment building in New York. The deal for Catherine, Called Birdy was made in the elevator; Dinah was assigned as my editor. And she is just right. Dinah : You want to know about lucky ? Lucky is when your boss doesn’t have time to look at the manuscript her neighbor handed her in the elevator, and she gives it to you. Reading Karen’s first manuscript, Catherine, Called Birdy , was a breathtaking experience. The manuscript was so polished, so close to perfect, that I was almost afraid to touch it with a pencil. Karen : At first my manuscripts went to Dinah after hundreds of drafts, and editing involved mostly cutting, smoothing, and refining.

Karen Cushman, Matilda Bone (Clarion, 2000) Karen Cushman returns to the Middle Ages, the setting for her Newbery Honor book Catherine Called Birdy and her Newbery Award-winning The Midwife's Apprentice , for her fourth novel, Matilda Bone . As with all of Cushman's books, Matilda Bone features a unique and memorable heroine. Matilda, 14 years old and raised at the manor where her late father was clerk, is left at Blood and Bones Alley where she is to be apprenticed to Red Peg the Bonesetter. She is ill-suited to the job, as her education has been more intellectual than practical. She learned to read and write Latin and Greek from her father, and after his death, the manor priest, Father Leufredus, tutored her in theological matters. (The reader also learns that Matilda's mother abandoned Matilda and her father when the girl was a baby.) Matilda's talents include petitioning the saints for sympathy; they answer her, almost never quite the way she hopes. She is very good at fasting and lying prone on the floor to pray, and is inventive enough with her spoken Latin to create expressions of frustration such as " Saliva mucusque or, "spit and slime."
