Recovering: A Journal, Paperback/May Sarton
Descriere
May Sarton's sixty-sixth year, 1978-79, was a difficult time: a cherished relationship came to an end, she had a mastectomy, she fought against depression. But, she writes, "When there is personal darkness, when there is a pain to be overcome, when we are forced to renew ourselves against all the odds, the psychic energy required simply to survive has tremendous force." This journal tells how she drew on that force, and how her friendships, her love of the natural world, and her growing audience of devoted readers brought light to the shadows."
Despre autor
Eleanore Marie Sarton, cunoscută sub pseudonimul May Sarton, a fost o romancieră, poetă și autoare de memorii belgiană și americană. În mod remarcabil, Sarton a dezvăluit public că este lesbiană în scrierile sale din 1965, într-o perioadă în care acest lucru era extrem de neobișnuit.
