Description

This is the memoir of Katharine Butler Hathaway. Born in Salem, Massachusetts, 1890, she attended Radcliffe college and later went on to write of her experiences in Maine, New York City, and Paris during the artists' culture of the 1920s. She writes of her life from her childhood with spinal tuberculosis at the age of five. She spent the next 5 years strapped to a board ... her body eventually became deformed as she never grew any large than that of a ten-year-old child. As she grows up, Katharine, begins to discover the value of her life, her self, and her independence.
