tells the story of a remarkable and determined woman from her childhood in a remote hamlet during the First World War to her academic career at Cambridge and her failed marriages. It is ultimately the story of a woman who rejected science for poetry, mysticism and Neoplatonist philosophy and so came to find her own true tradition. As one would expect from an eminent poet, Raine uses luminous language in service to clear-eyed honesty and personal truth.
