Now, the beloved ninety-two-year-old, author of classics such as \u003ci\u003eVenice\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTrieste\u003c\/i\u003e, embarks on an entirely new literary enterprise--a collection of daily diaries, penned over the course of a single year. Ranging widely from the idyllic confines of her North Wales home, Morris offers diverse sallies on her preferred form of exercises (walking briskly), her frustration at not recognizing a certain melody humming in her head (Beethoven's Path tique, incidentally), her nostalgia for small-town America, as well as intimate glimpses into her home life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith insightful quips on world issues, including Britain's \"special relationship\" with the United States and the #MeToo movement, \u003ci\u003eIn My Mind's Eye\u003c\/i\u003e will charm old and new Jan Morris fans alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liveright Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781631495366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2018 pg. 73\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2018 pg. 13\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/03\/2018\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jan Morris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36663332143260,"sku":"9781631495366","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_f79abf1e-1fd7-4f4d-acb2-cd3084722043.jpg?v=1603904059","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/in-my-minds-eye-a-thought-diary-9781631495366","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
