Publisher: Routledge, London 1995, first edition. ISBN: 0415061121. Hardcover & jacket, near fine/near fine - only very light wear overall. Would be upgraded to fine but book must have had something heavy sitting across it which caused a few light indentations across hardcover & jacket front. Mylar protector is lightly scuffed. Interior pages are clean, tight & unmarked. b/w photos. 8vo (9.5" tall), 284 pages.
A woman of extraordinary energy, talent and versatility. Her international career spanned writing, producing, directing and acting; most importantly, the works of Ibsen. Drawing extensively on Robins' diary, letters, drafts of novels, reviews and many other sources, Angela John examines how and why Robins chose to present herself in different ways and at different times - how she staged' her life. In the process, John succeeds in re-evaluating the purpose of historical biography, and provides a stimulating overview of British and US cultural history of the period.
