Catherine Carsell: A Biography by Jan Pilditch
I had never heard of this novelist, biographer and critic. Born in Glasgow in the late 19th century, she was well travelled and a major figure in the Scottish Renaissance. Her life tells us much about the women and their writing in the early years of the 20th century. She was rebellious, determined, intellectual and no stranger to conflict. Hard to read at first, but it grew on me.
