Boston: David R. Godine, 2002.
8vo. 230 x 150 mm., [9 x 6 inches]. [6], 373 [1] pp. Illustrated with 24 half tone images from the Origo Archive at La Foce. Publisher's blue boards with white linen spine, dust jacket. Very good copy.
Highly readable biography of Iris Origo whose life as an Anglo American, married to a wealthy Tuscan land owner, captures the decline of Edwardian England, the rise of fascism in Italy, World War II, and preservation of small part of Italy from the ravages of its age. It also focuses on Origo's writing, including her biographical work, autobiography, and literary criticism, "that has become recognized as a model of its kind."
