About this title

About the Author

Recipient of the prestigious Commonwealth Writers Prize in 1989, Janet Frame has long been admired for her startlingly original prose and formidable imagination. A native of New Zealand, she is the author of eleven novels, four collections of stories, a volume of poetry, a children's book, and her heartfelt and courageous autobiography--all published by George Braziller.

Review

A rare treat-poetic, witty, pungent with character and sharply anecdotal. There is much zestful reading here. -- Boston Sunday Herald

Frame writes with a beauty that confers a morbid grandeur, that makes poetry of the particular, the private, the enclosed. -- The New York Times
