| Summary |
Adultery, sight and the fear of blindness; hands, girlhood, paintings and gardens - these images and memories float moodily together, as much fiction as fact, telling the stories of the women that inhabit this narrative. The women, from the fifteenth century to the present, reveal their universal struggle to attain independance and fulfilment, in worlds of real and imagined danger |
