Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Before I began this experiment I had always been haunted by the feeling that the surface of life, what everyone said about it, was quite different from the reality of life, that the important things that were happening all the time were on the whole quite different from what was said about…them.' - Marion MilnerWhat is it that stops people from knowing what they want? How much of our experience is shaped by images, symbols, and early memories and do such things help or hinder one becoming an adult? Written in 1936, An Experiment in Leisure continues Marion Milners unique and compelling investigation into how we lead our lives, complementing the account she began in A Life of Ones Own.Attempting to understand the gap between what she memorably describes as the poverty of words and the reality of living, she draws on memory images in books, mythology, religious experience, travel, and even going to the theatre that seem to point to a suspension of ordinary, everyday awareness. From this state of emptiness springs an increasing imaginative appreciation of being alive and, as Milner concludes, of being a woman.With a new Foreword by Akshi Singh, An Experiment in Leisure remains a striking and captivating adventure in thinking and living with uncertainty, whose insights remain fresh and relevant today. With a new foreword by Akshi Singh, An Experiment in Leisure remains a striking and captivating adventure in thinking and living with uncertainty, whose insights remain fresh and relevant today.

Paperback. Condition: New. 'This is what I really want. I want to discover ways to discriminate the important things in human life. I want to find ways of getting past this blind fumbling with existence.' - Marion Milner, from A Life of One's Own.How often do we really ask ourselves, 'What will make me happy? What do I really wa…nt from life?' In A Life of One's Own Marion Milner, a renowned British psychoanalyst, artist and autobiographer, takes us on an extraordinary and compelling seven-year inward journey to discover what it is that makes her happy.On its first publication, W. H. Auden found the book 'as exciting as a detective story' and, as Milner searches out clues, the reader quickly becomes involved in the chase. Using her own personal diaries, she analyses moments of everyday life that can bring surprising joy, such as walking, listening to music, and drawing. She also records, in a disarmingly clear and insightful manner, the struggle between the urge to order and control one's thoughts and standing back to let them wander where they may.A pioneering account of lived experience that also anticipates the contemporary phenomenon of mindfulness, A Life of One's Own is a great adventure in thinking and living whose insights remain as fresh today as they were on the book's first publication in the 1930s.This Routledge Classics edition includes a revised Introduction by Rachel Bowlby.
