"The distinguished poet/essayist . . . describes poignantly the long, anxious days. . . . A lyrical, candid, sensitive spirit pervades this chronicle, which ends with Sarton well again, rejoicing in the present and putting the past behind her." —Publishers Weekly

"Remarkable . . . written with the honesty and the eye to personal and ambient detail we expect from [Sarton] and a new poignancy as physical frailty compounds the difficulties of creation." —Marge Piercy

"Always to read May Sarton's journal is like getting to talk to an explorer. What she explores, of course, is life itself. This last report, covering particularly rugged terrain, may be the best yet." —Noel Perrin

"[Sarton] has allowed us to share in all the adventures of her life and in doing so has enriched us beyond belief." —Eda Leshan, Newsday

"A book of transformative powers. As May Sarton's journal chronicles her battles for life and health, we learn about the complex layers of her courage . . . passionate, spontaneous, moving . . . revealing May Sarton to be one of the great spirits of our time."—Valerie Miner

"An amazing document of the will to survive, as all of May Sarton's journals have been in a sense, but here the road is steeper and the stakes so much higher. . . . Three cheers—no, three hundred—for May Sarton." —Susan Kennedy
