Book description
'When Storm Jameson set out to write a memoir... she found literary gold' VIVIAN GORNICK'A fascinating life story, told with passion, clarity and a fierce intelligence' SARAH WATERSAfter decades of writing a novel every year, Storm Jameson found her form in the memoir. With stringent, witty self-scrutiny, she wrestled with the great events of her life: childhood struggles with her tempestuous mother; an early, unhappy marriage; repeated flights from settled domestic life; and a hard-won career in writing and politics.In a voice of electric immediacy, Jameson recounts the great shocks of the twentieth century, from losing her brother in the First World War to tirelessly helping refugees escape Nazi Germany during the Second. An arrestingly candid account of a rich life, this is one the great literary memoirs.
