About this book
The third volume of Janet Frame’s autobiography follows her departure from New Zealand and the years abroad in which she established herself as a writer. Travel, relationships and the demands of creative work shape an intimate account of finding a place in the world while sustaining the private imaginative life on which her writing depends.
