About This Item
Vancouver, BC: Talonbooks, 1981. Soft cover. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; Taking as her alter-ego Lily Briscoe, the painter in Virginia Woolf's 'To the Lighthouse', Mary Meigs paints a portrait of herself, her family and her friends in this book, a book that is both autobiography and memoir. In it, she describes the three major decisions of her life: 'not to marry, to be an artist' and to listen to her 'own voices.' A very wise book written by a woman who waited - and lived - some 60 years to begin to write.
