AWW22 In Case You Missed Them - Bernadette Brennan and Joyce Morgan
Chaired by Caroline Baum.
\nBernadette Brennan and Joyce Morgan wrote their excellent biographies in the hope their readers would become readers of their subjects. Bernadette\u2019s Leaping Through Waterfalls: The Enigmatic Gillian Mears documents Mears\u2019s rich, blazing life, revealing a writer of astonishing gifts and great fearlessness. Joyce\u2019s The Countess from Kirribilli is the remarkable story of Elizabeth von Arnim, born Mary Beauchamp in Kirribilli, a prolific writer who became the toast of London, a literary sensation compared to Jane Austen. Both deserve celebration.
