註釋Best known for her "Chronicles of Carlingford" series, Margaret Oliphant wrote her autobiography over three decades, ranging from the mid-1860s to the 1890s. A deeply moving account, the autobiography describes her efforts to support herself, her children, and two brothers--one a bankrupt, the other an alcoholic--through her writing, and to sustain herself against the difficult moments of her life. This new edition restores for the first time the full text of the Autobiography--more than a quarter of which has never been published before--including barbed comments on her contemporaries and her most intimate reflections upon the tragedies that beset her.
