Hardback. Condition: Good. In her poetry, fiction, essays and public statements, Laura Riding tackled an extraordinary range of controversial and topical issues. In her personal relationships she was often at the centre of a circle of friends and artists, as diverse as Gertrude Stein, Edmund Wilson, Hart Crane and Robert Penn Warren, whose activities she inspired and sometimes controlled. During a long affair with Robert Graves, she was the muse of his best work. Together they launched the New Criticism. Laura Riding, who died in 1991 at the age of 90, was a deeply divided woman whose ability to create a personal mythology and continually re-imagine herself could be astonishing. The frequent subject of outrageous rumour and intense controversy, she has been portrayed as a megalomaniac, a sexual libertine, a femme fatale, even a witch. In this biography, the author considers Laura Riding in the context of her background, her times and her work and removes the layers of conjecture and bias that have distorted her life, reputation and scale of achievement. …

Hardback. Condition: Good. *A 2011 National Book Award Finalist* A spellbinding story of renunciation, conversion, and radicalism from Pulitzer Prize-finalist biographer Deborah Baker What drives a young woman raised in a postwar New York City suburb to convert to Islam, abandon her country and Jewish faith, and embrace a life of exile in Pakistan? The Convert tells the story of how Margaret Marcus of Larchmont became Maryam Jameelah of Lahore, one of the most trenchant and celebrated voices of Islam's argument with the West. A cache of Maryam's letters to her parents in the archives of the New York Public Library sends the acclaimed biographer Deborah Baker on her own odyssey into the labyrinthine heart of twentieth-century Islam. Casting a shadow over these letters is the mysterious figure of Mawlana Abul Ala Mawdudi, both Maryam's adoptive father and the man who laid the intellectual foundations for militant Islam. As she assembles the pieces of a singularly perplexing life, Baker finds herself captive to questions raised by Maryam's journey. Is her story just another bleak chapter in a so-called clash of civilizations? Or does it signify something else entirely? And then there's this: Is the life depicted in Maryam's letters home and in her books an honest reflection of the one she lived? Like many compelling and true tales, The Convert is stranger than fiction. It is a gripping account of a life lived on the radical edge and a profound meditation on the cultural conflicts that frustrate mutual understanding.…
