While their hair-raising and amusing adventures continue Ben battles depression as he attempts to rehabilitate his career while frustrating Norma's own aspirations as a writer. She seeks solace in a string of affairs one of them ending in a pregnancy that she aborts. However Norma's passion for life Ben and her seven children and her radical instincts shine throughout this dazzling memoir. 20 black-and-white photographs are included. Fine first edition first printing in fine mylar-protected dust jacket.Not remainder-marked or price-clipped A78 <br/> <br/> Thunder's Mouth Press/Nation Books hardcover
