Landscapes of the Heart: The Elizabeth Spencer Story

О фильме

Southern novelist Elizabeth Spencer, still writing in her 90s, recounts her life story and the many decades she lived abroad in Rome and Montreal, away from her home state of Mississippi, a life spent in exile from the discontent of family and a literary community indifferent to her non-traditional writings about the South. Her story is filled with memories and reflections about race, class, and the changing roles of women during a defining mid-century in American history.
