Fascinating!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
A long but extremely rewarding read! Meticulous research brings these two brilliant writers to life. A longtime fan of both of these writers, I had originally planned to buy this book at the time of publication. However,plans did not go accordingly, and when I finally did, I could not find a copy. It was until a recent book fair at the local mall that I was able to find a copy. I spent many nights glued to this book fascinated by this turbulent relationship.This is a biography I will read again and again. I had never read anything by Joan Mellen-She is a wonderful writer!
