Description
|
|
|
|
A prolific letter-writer, often far from home and loved ones, Margaret Mead nearly always used her correspondence to hone her writing and her ideas and this collection presents 60 years of personal and professional communications, offering insight into Mead's relationships with circles of family, friends, and colleagues, and revealing her thoughts on the nature of these relationships. The letters also showcase her sense of humor, her loyalty, and her great self-awareness about her most important relationships that, as she wrote, "somehow reinstate my sense of myself, as no longer living 'in the season of the narrow heart'."
