Beschrijving
Wildwood is a clear-eyed and honest memoir, beautifully constructed and written. It tells the story of a young woman growing into her destiny, to be a writer. It evokes a childhood spent in the expectations of a middle class family in the 1950s and ’60s, the rebellion of teenaged years, then a chaotic young adulthood–as often denying the destiny as seeking it. Finally, Nancy Peacock becomes the fine writer and teacher she was always meant to be.
