Description

When Dawn Powell died thirty years ago she left a shelf of books and some impassioned fans. The novels, plays, and stories that won Powell a unique reputation in American letters are now joined by her diaries, here published for the first time. Readers familiar with Powell's work will delight in hearing her distinctive voice in this brilliant account of her writing life. The diaries are also of vital interest for what they add to cultural history - for Powell's many encounters with artists, musicians, and writers of the period.
