Found and Lost: Mittens, Miep, and Shovelfuls of Dirt
Alison Leslie Gold
A memoir from the holocaust writer Alison Leslie Gold told through a series of letters. The letters tell of her early activism; her descent into addiction and alcoholism; her fateful meeting with Miep Gies (who sheltered the Frank family), and her subsequent recovery. ‘Compelling.’ – Times Literary Supplement
My Katherine Mansfield Project
Kirsty Gunn
In 2009 Kirsty Gunn returned to spend the winter in her home town of Wellington, New Zealand, the place where Katherine Mansfield also grew up. In this lyrical essay she explores what it means to come home.
‘I began reading it and could not put it down . . . I came away feeling Gunn had escaped all the old hackneyed ways of writing about influence and created something wholly her own. It really lives. All of it.’ – John Carey, twice chair of the Booker Prize.
