"A brave and elegant figure...an honest woman...No one who reads her [memoirs] will doubt the self-questioning and the rigorous honesty of her mind. Perhaps, as in Voltaire's short story 'L'IngÉnu,' it is that too much honesty is sometimes unpalatable, even if it is couched in civil terms...She has an open mind that has released itself from the old straitjacketed frame of reference of Right and Left, she is instinctively, deeply antiauthoritarian and she is unlikely to stick to straight ideological lines. She will go on asking difficult questions." -- Isabella Thomas, The Observer, "A brave and elegant figure...an honest woman...No one who reads her [memoirs] will doubt the self-questioning and the rigorous honesty of her mind.

Not as advertised. Book came from some library, if I wanted to steal a library book there’s one a few miles from my house. Automated customer service, little to no help. Tracking information wasn’t provided until I mentioned asking for a refund. Completely different edition of the book than what I expected upon viewing the picture and the description. Wouldn’t order from this seller again. Book ordered on the 26th of October & received it on the 6th of November although it was “shipped” the 26th
