Language: English. Weight: 17 ounces. Hardback with DJ. Mary Gordon, born in 1949 in New York to a Catholic mother and a father who converted to Catholicism from Judaism, was raised in a strict, religious environment and at one time considered becoming a nun. She attended Barnard College and in 1978 published her first novel Final Payments. She followed that with The Company of Women (1981) . Both books exploring the challenges faced by young Catholic women as they make their way in the larger, secular world. In 2008, she was named Official State Author of New York. She has received the Lila Wallace Reader's Digest Writers Award and a Guggenheim Fellowship, and is also a three-time recipient of the O. Henry Award for best short story. The Company of Women was a finalist for the National Book Award in 1983. In Men and Angels, Anne Foster's husband accepts a yearlong teaching job in France. She decides to resume her own career in art history, which includes cataloging the work of a compelling and long-neglected painter, Caroline Watson. To care for her children, Anne employs the pious Laura Post. Though the young woman is well liked by the children, she rubs Anne the wrong way. Should Anne be more compassionate, or should she behave more like the willful artistand unapologetically bad mothershe's so fascinated by in Watson? As the discord mounts between Anne and Laura, the need for answers sharpens. Men and Angels is a riveting and refreshingly unsentimental inquiry into the themes of motherhood and self-sacrifice. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 239 pages. N° de réf. du vendeur 57700
