About the Author
May Sarton (1912-1995) was an acclaimed poet, novelist, and memoirist.
Review
“May Sarton has never been better than she is in this beautiful, harrowing novel about being old, unwanted, yet refusing to give up. . . . The problems of old age have been detailed by sociologists but only a novel as searching and deeply felt as this one can bring them so close to the bone.”
- Margaret Manning, Boston Globe
“A brief, strong statement. . . . A convincing record of evil done and good intentions gone astray. . . . A powerful indictment.”
- Ellen Douglas, New York Times Book Review
