With charm and vivid detail, the acclaimed novelist Elizabeth
Spencer acquaints readers with the places and people, the pleasures
and heartaches, she has known in her life. From her idyllic
childhood in small-town Mississippi onward, a questioning spirit
and voracity for reading and writing shape Spencer's course: her
formal and informal educations at Vanderbilt and in Rome, Florence,
New York, and Montreal, and her break with the culturally rigid
segregated society from which she sprang; her friendships with such
great writers as Eudora Welty, Saul Bellow, John Cheever, and
Robert Penn Warren; and her own many remarkable literary successes.
A deeply affecting memoir by an esteemed American author,
Landscapes of the Heart reveals Spencer to be both a part of and
forever apart from her beloved southern roots.
