  • "In her early 50s, Australian historian Inga Clendinnen found herself diagnosed with an incurable liver disease. As her body and her mind deteriorated, she felt a need to write - about her childhood as well as her experience with illness. The result is a story about the fragility of self and the strength of the creative spirit."
