"Back in the day, when living in Baltimore (another life ago), I was in the audience at the Baltimore Museum of Art when Anne Truitt read a little from her book. She mentioned an experience she had while visiting Japan and naturally that resulted in my eventually reading this journal."
"A softly interesting, very personal look at being an artist and single mom over decades. While the author is from a different generation (she went to college in the 1930s) and part of the country (mid-Atlantic and south), there was still much that felt very relevant. And I enjoyed her writing--it was like listening to someone I would enjoy getting to know."
