"Helen Hayes is one of the few great personalities of this century who has managed to achieve international fame without losing her much-prized "ordinariness." A Gift of Joy is a collection of her thoughts, reminiscences, and anecdotes, as well as selected pieces from her favorite writers. Taken together, they express the very personal philosophy of a woman who has enjoyed self-fulfillment in both her professional and private life. The "gift of joy" Helen Hayes received from life covers a wide range of experiences. She found it in her three most uninhibited performances. She found it in her life with her late husband, Charles MacArthur, and in her relationship with her children. She finds it in exploring new places and in the self-realization that comes through solitude. She finds it while walking in the country, working in her garden, and even in the contemplation of growing old. She tells why she insisted on having an audition before accepting a part in O'Neill's A Touch of the Poet and how she almost neglected to read the script for Victoria Regina, which later became her best-known role. She tells how she read Shakespeare's sonnets for the first time because a producer prescribed them as a way of losing her Southern accent, and she quotes her favorites. She discusses the religious crisis which took place in her own life, and introduces the writings on faith and affirmation which are most meaningful to her. And as her words and ideas remind her of the words of poets, playwrights and pundits, she quotes them. What emerges is a unique reflection of a unique woman, filled to the brim with Helen Hays' enthusiasm for living and her infinite capacity for appreciating the people and encounters that have made up her world. At a time when so much of our literature is filled with cynicism, hostility, and despair, this inspirational and optimistic book is truly A Gift of Joy." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
