    This book of stories celebrates people who have a magnetism, a tenacity, a personal vision, an independence, and a self-sufficiency that elude most of us today.

    Collects the best of Mary Sarton's novels, journals, and poetry offering an overview of her explorations of life and its joys.

    What had started off for him as a haphazard choice of literary odds and ends has now become a collection, something to be nurtured and cultivated. Here for the first time are all the Crackers in one volume, making a wholly delightful, amusing, and wide-ranging anthology.There is something here for every taste – from palindromes to epitaphs, from Pepys and Gibbon to Dorothy Parker. This is a book which no bedside table should be without.
