Description:

An American memoir, recounting nine decades of experiences, associations, fortunes and misfortunes of one small, unimportant, unremarkable person. Born half an orphan she tells of her lifelong struggle to find a niche for herself, how she dealt with failure and succeeded mainly in persistence to communicate her delight and wonder at having been given life on this planet. She can be tender and sentimental but always candid as she introduces the characters she knew in many places and under varied circumstances. Although she did not find them all lovable they were interesting and telling about them makes a colorful mosaic.
