Dustcover shows some wear & slight tear (back-bottom edge) - Book is in Fine Condition - Stated First Edition - Price inside dustcover: $16.95 - Illustrated with photos 178 pages - How I Grew explores the young adulthood of Mary McCarthy, one of the most outspoken and prominent intellectuals of the twentieth century. Focusing on eight formative years of her life—from high school in the Seattle area through college at Vassar—McCarthy reveals a girl by turns vulnerable, independent, dramatic, lonely, inquisitive, romantic, demonstrably bright, and uncommonly daring. In candid, often intimate detail, How I Grew recounts McCarthy’s early attempts at writing; her relationships with teachers, family, and friends; a melodramatic flirtation with suicide; and experiences as dissimilar as her first job and her first seduction. A natural companion to the much-praised Memories of a Catholic Girlhood, this is a remarkable personal chronicle, anutterly convincing self-portrait, and a superb addition to the art of the autobiography.

Condition: Near Fine. :: Further Information: These memories of mine have been collected slowly, over a period of years. Some readers, finding them in a magazine, have taken them for stories. The assumption that I have 'made them up' is surprisingly prevalent, even among people who know me. 'That Jewish grandmother of yours …! " Jewish friends have duded me, sceptically, as though to say, "Come now, you don't expect us to believe that your grandmother was really Jewish.' Indeed she was, and indeed I really had a wicked uncle who used to beat me, though more than once, after some public appearance, I have had a smiling stranger invite me to confess that 'Uncle Myers' was a hoax.
