| adam_text | PRAISE FOR ƒ USED TO LIVE HERE OX CE “λ liranda Seymour has written a compelling and stylish new biography of Jean Rhvs, whose life and work, hace often been cast in melancholic shadow. Sevmour adds color and complexity to Rhvs’s storv, and suggests the haunting influence of her early years on the Caribbean island of Dominica. I his is a fresh, empathetic portrait of an iconic and unconventional woman writer whose searing novels of trauma, race, gender, and exile were ahead of their time.” —HEATHER CLARK, author of Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of SyLeia Plath “The multiple guises and conflicting personae of Jean Rhys— reckless and reclusive, captivating and appalling—demand a particularly agile biographer. Miranda Sevmour is ideally suited to the task. An empathetic but unsparing critic, a tenacious and resourceful researcher, and a historian of literary cultures with a novelist s sense of the evocative detail, she has produced an enthralling biography of a haunting—and maddening—modern writer.” —ELAIXE SHOWALTER, professor emerita of English, Princeton Lniversity, and author of .-I Literature of Their Own: British Women ofelists from Bronte to Lessing “It’s a high-wire act to hold so witty and eloquent a balance between this writer’s recklessness and diligence. The honesty too is appealing, the acknowledgement of dark places no one can fully visit.” —LYX D A L L GO R DOX, author of Outsiders : Free Women Writers Who Changed the World “Brilliantly w ritten, compulsively readable, and insightful, Miranda Seymour’s biography does full justice to a remarkable and
complex lite.” —PAT BARKER, author of The Women of Troy and The Silence of the Girls “One of Miranda Seymour’s finest biographies, this is an utterly riveting voyage into a writers mind. You can almost feel Jean Rhys breathing in the room, and what a ferociously complicated woman she w as! I w as spellbound from start to finish.” —DEBORAH MOGGACH, author of These Foolish Things and Tulip Freer
