    Man måste läsa den i lugn takt då den är 522 sidor så att man hänger med ordentligt med handlingen.

She sought the support and company of fellow writers and set out single-mindedly and courageously to achieve her goal of being a writer. She wrote her first novel, Owls Do Cry while staying with her mentor Frank Sargeson, and then left New Zealand, not to return for seven years. Her autobiography inspired Jane Campion's acclaimed film, An Angel at My Table.
