Rough Draft - The Modernist Diaries of Emily Holmes Coleman, 1929-1937

Informationen zum Autor Edited by Elizabeth Podnieks Klappentext This edited selection, culled from the diary Coleman kept for over four decades, documents Coleman's experiences as an American expatriate poet, novelist, and diarist in France and England during the heyday of Anglo-American modernism. It showcases her struggles to reconcile her multiple identities as a creative, sexual, maternal, and spiritual woman as she interacted with some of the most important literary, artistic, and intellectual figures of the period.
