A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Agnes Mackay was educated in Scotland and Tours, France, but considers a study of languages and philosophy under the guidance of her uncle Théodore Roussel, to be the most formative period of education. She lived in Chelsea for a number of years, contributing essays on French literature and poems to various periodicals, and making frequent visits to France, meeting many painters and writers, including Paul Valéry.
