Deceived with Kindness. A Bloomsbury Childhood.

See notes

Intense, delicate and evocative, a quartet of autobiographical stories by the daughter of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant. A sharp observer of the colourful social milieu and the vibrant characters that populate it, these are stories about family and friendships, yet also curdled relationships and small betrayals. Delicate and keenly felt, Angelica Garnett paints a picture of a life lived through literature and art among a world of painters and poets. Here too is a portrait of a woman seeking an understanding and acceptance of her past, and struggling to emerge from a formidable legacy. Charming, tender and very personal, these stories brilliantly evoke the spirit of the era and describe what it is to grow up in the shadow of artists.
