Mewshaw’s account, especially of Greene’s last years, is moving and perceptive. This lovely book can be read alongside Richard Greene’s The Unquiet Englishman: A Life of Graham Greene.
Bremmer and Jennings capture the larger-than-life, often frenetic spirit of this feminist trailblazer who pushed back against social norms to try to thrive professionally and personally; her story should inspire all those who continue to fight gender bias and homophobia today.
