Description:The companion to Sarah LeFanu's biography of Dame Rose Macaulay.'Dreaming of Rose: A Biographer’s Journal is a fascinating account of a biographical quest and of a personal journey. While working on her biography of the writer and traveller Rose Macaulay, Sarah LeFanu kept a journal that charts the details of that quest: the people she met, the places she visited, and her strange dreamworld encounters with the very subject of her biographical pursuit. REVIEWS ‘This is such a wise and charming book, giving us a glimpse over the shoulder of a biographer at work. It captures what it’s really like to write a biography, which is nothing like the soothing sensation of reading one. Here are the highs and lows, the episodes of frustration and exhilaration, the serendipity, the slog, the networking, "the biographer’s art of bullying” – and the constant shifts in emotional weather between biographer and biographee. People imagine that biographers "identify” with their subjects in some simple sense, but Dreaming of Rose conveys how much more complicated the relationship is. The book becomes a tribute to biography itself, as a quest, as an art, and as the most generous and selfless of literary genres.’ – Sarah Bakewell, author of How to Live: or A Life of Montaigne in One Question and Twenty Attempts at an Answer.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
