- Synopsis
- Set in Copenhagen in the years before World War II, Ditlevsen's memoir recounts the early life of a young woman who is determined to become a poet, despite almost overwhelming obstacles. Raised in poverty and lacking the most basic encouragement from her family, Tove Ditlevsen finds comfort and hope through her writing. In her memoir she writes about her longing for her mother's love, her adventures with a wayward childhood friend, a series of dead-end jobs, and finally her introduction as a teenager to a circle of writers and artists. This book was originally published in Denmark in 1967.
