Finally, Garner has opened her diaries and invited readers into the world behind her novels and works of non-fiction.

With their frankness, humour and steel-sharp wit, these accounts of everyday happenings provide an intimate insight into the life of one of Australia’s greatest writers.”--Dust jacket gate fold.
