Paperback. Condición: Library stamps and markings. From a newsletter of the Centre for Youth Literature, Agnes Nieuwenhuizen's centre based in Melbourne at the State Library. "Few authors can have spoken and written about their life and work at such length and with such clarity, wit, and psychological insight, and Duder wisely allows Mahy to tell much of her story in her own words. That's not to downplay Duder's achievement in assembling and researching a huge mass of material - and writing such an absorbing, useful and eminently readable 'literary life'. If, as Duder believes, Mahy has been 'shamefully neglected (in her own country if not elsewhere)', this book will go a long way to redressing that injustice."Leading local and international scholars explore some of the multifarious themes of Margaret MahyÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂs extraordinary young adult novels.
