-Descripción:

The author emphasizes that this book is a memoir, distinguishing it from an autobiography. It is a compilation of manuscripts and the transcription of a voice recording made in the last year of her life. The text is organized into chapters, each providing a view of specific events in the author's life - from her protected upbringing at Eton College; her time as a volunteer and later as an officer in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force during the Second World War; her introduction to the Fourth Way ideas; the ten months she spent in G.I Gurdjieff's inner circle in Paris in 1949; to her life and travels with her husband in the 1950s. The book offers a candid account of her life experiences and insights into the personal lives of two influential 20th century teachers, complemented by twenty-four of the author's sketches in pen and watercolour.
