The treasure of Miss Godden's life is in this memoir.
8. August 2000
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
"A House With Four Rooms," the second and last volume of Rumer Godden's memoirs, is one of the most treasured volumes in my library. Miss Godden writes with a terrible beauty of her life on returning to England, a divorcee with two little girls, her obstinate and ultimately successful struggle to earn a living solely by writing, her second marriage, her conversion to Catholicism, the years at Stanbrook Abbey where she wrote "In This House of Brede," her publishers, the films made from her books, and (of course) her love affairs with houses. She also writes delightfully and with her incomparable irony of the challenges of fame, a lecture tour of the United States, etc. The book nourishes the mind, the soul, the imagination, and the heart. You will be consoled without having realized you were in need of consolation. Enjoy, if you haven't already, the first volume of her memoirs, "A Time to Dance, No Time to Weep."

an exquisite gift from Rumer Godden
19. Juli 2000
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
"A House With Four Rooms" will delight those new to Rumer Godden as well as those who have read "A Time to Dance, No Time to Weep," the first volume of her memoirs. This second volume tells the story of her life in England after WWII when she returned from India, her getting established as a writer in London, raising Jane and Paula, love affairs with several delightful houses, collaboration with Jean Renoir on the movie "The River," second marriage, lecture tours of America, conversion to Catholicism, link with the Benedictine nuns and writing of "This House of Brede," and a wealth of other charming things. The wine of her life beautifully aged and distilled, this memoir ends with her retirement to Scotland, but its delight goes on long after that. You'll love it.

The Life of a Fascinating Writer, Rumer Godden
30. Oktober 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I have read a great many Rumer Godden books, and have always liked her unique style of writing. I have most of the novels I like best, and can read them over and over. The second part of her autobiography was quite fascinating. She led an enormously interesting life in India and in England, and other countries, and her subjects are so varied. In a House with Four Rooms, one could understand where she found her subjects. I was most interested in her novel, In This House of Brede, and enjoyed reading how and why she wrote it in her autobiography.
