Summary: Kennedy Fraser brings to the fourteen essays in this indispensible volume the sensitivity, freshness of observation, and offhand elegance that made her fashion reportage for The New Yorker so legendary. Now Fraser turns her attention to women: women in love affairs, friendships, marriages, and families; in relation to one another and to the talented men who so often render them invisible. In Ornament and Silence, we see Virginia Woolf, haunted and eventually destroyed by the sexual secrets of her childhood. We meet Flaubert's theatrically importunate mistress, Louise Colet, the one woman who could briefly slip past the master's misogyny. Fraser offers vibrant portraits of the Russian novelist Nina Berberova and the English naturalist Miriam Rothschild. And here is Fraser herself, learning her craft at The New Yorker, tending her English garden and--on every page--delighting us with the manifold felicities of her prose.-- Back cover.
