In this book of new and gathered critical essays, Vivian Gornick becomes the searching cleverness and credibility of understanding that draw her memoirs on the work - and the lives - of freelance writers she admires, among them Jean Rhys, Willa Cather, Christina Stead, and George Meredith. In doing so, she examines a century of novels of love-in-the-Western-world and comes to see that, for most writers, it is the drama of our own upset and frightened selves in the existence of love that is our modern preoccupation.
