Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Isn't nineteen an interesting age? It was, for Lauris Scott, in wartime Wellington. Her letters to her mother, which form the centre of this autobiography, capture the shimmering, passionate life of a nineteen-year-old. The story begins in a Hawke's Bay childhood. Social Credit was the family creed; dramatic productions the order of the day. Leaving this close family group, the student Lauris wrote intimate letters home: friends, books, betrayals, ideals, all life's vicissitudes appear on the page with a sparkle that confirms a writer's hand. Detailed, direct and charming, this is the story of a young girl's passage into womanhood. 239 pages.…

Softcover. Condizione: Good. It has always been true that in dealing with the dilemmas of ordinary life - the inescapable moral, personal, spiritual, even practical decisions that are constantly to be made - people turn to poetry .They look for refreshment, for illumination, insight, pleasure,relief.Thus Lauris Edmond stated her views on the role of poetry when she began work on this anthology in 1998.
