Two years before her death, Mary Lee Settle sat down "to trace the way that led me into the writer I have been for fifty years". The result is this memoir, which picks up her life where Addie (1998) left it, with a girl turning twenty, in love with the language of Shakespeare and determined to be an actress. In 1938 her mother sends Mary Lee off to a theatre apprenticeship, setting her on a road few women of that era would have dared to travel.The road will lead to serious, "uncompromised" writing and over twenty books, including "The Beulah Quintet". The adventures along the way-from the glamour of New York during the World's Fair to the terrors of London during the Blitz - will delight, inform and alarm the reader of this thoroughly modern Canterbury Tale.
