Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the diaries of six distinct writers, the book examines how the diary genre serves as a personal lens into their lives and thoughts. Through the works of Katherine Mansfield, Virginia Woolf, Antonia White, Joe Orton, John Cheever, and Sylvia Plath, it highlights the unique ways each author navigates their experiences and emotions. The analysis reveals the diary's capacity to both reflect and shape the diarist's identity, challenging the notion of a singular, unmediated self.
