520 1 $a"In the course of over thirty years of writing about psychology, child development, biography, and fiction, Rosemary Dinnage has encountered a variety of outstanding women, all of whom, in one way or another, felt powerfully alone." "Here she brings together her reflections on some of the most memorable of them." "Some of these women knew isolation through their dedication to duty, and others through their immersion in writing, painting, or politics. Some juggled with fantasy worlds in which they could end up stranded. Others learned the fine art of survival, fighting illness, hard childhoods, or a hostile public. All of them, whether trying to construct a life or a work of art - or both - suggest ways in which women can choose, learn, laugh, invent, dare, and of course wholeheartedly love or hate." "These women make up a gallery of the famous, the infamous, the once famous, and the never famous. In telling their stories, Rosemary Dinnage considers what aloneness may really be, how it begins, how it feels, and, above all, how this experience can teach and illuminate as well as hurt."--BOOK JACKET.
