Sobre este artículo
New York: The Viking Press. Fine in Near Fine dj. 1978. 3rd printing. Hardcover. [a nice tight clean book, with no discernible wear; the jacket has the teensiest bit of edgewear, and some very slight age-toning, but remains bright and attractive with no notable flaws]. SIGNED by the author (no inscription) on the front endpaper. The author's debut novel, an epistolary tale spanning more than half century, about a woman (based on her own grandmother), who was "born liberated" and whose letters, sharing "her triumphs and follies in love and marriage, in child-bearing and child-rearing, in travel, business, society" are "a dynamic expression of her invincible spirit." A best-seller at the time of its original publication, it was later adapted by the author as an award-winning one-woman stage show; it also served as the basis of a well-regarded 1986 NBC miniseries starring Sally Field. Signed by Author .
Sinopsis
A bestselling sensation when it was first published by Viking in 1978, A Woman of Independent Means has delighted millions of readers and was the inspiration for the television miniseries starring Sally Field. At the turn of the century, a time when women had few choices, Bess Steed Garner inherits a legacy — not only of wealth but of determination and desire, making her truly a woman of independent means. From the early 1900s through the 1960s, we accompany Bess as she endures life's trials and triumphs with unfailing courage and indomitable spirit: the sacrifices love sometimes requires of the heart, the flaws and rewards of marriage, the often-tested bond between mother and child, and the will to defy a society that demands conformity. Now, with this beautiful trade paperback edition, Penguin will introduce a new generation of readers to this richly woven story. . .and to Bess Steed Garner, a woman for all ages.
