註釋
More often than not, Mary Lamb's contributions to English literature are overshadowed by those of her more famous brother Charles. Her fear of more public recognition was justified because from her youth she suffered from bipolar disorder. Despite this affliction, Mary became a recognized author in her own right as well as a literary collaborator with her brother Charles. The story of Mary Lamb's recuperative powers, devoted friends and acquaintances, and literary talent combine to give us an illuminating look into the lives of women of her era and also a great reading adventure.
