Description
The Surreal Life of Leonora Carrington Leonora Carrington's life was a journey of transformation, from the stifling existence of a debutante in London to the vibrant world of Mexico City. This extraordinary story follows the life of a woman who defied convention, embracing the Surrealist movement and becoming a muse, novelist, and great artist. Joanna Moorhead's biography is the result of a remarkable friendship between two women, connected by blood but previously unknown to each other. Through their encounters, both women's lives were changed forever. With intimate detail and insight, Moorhead brings to life the remarkable story of Leonora Carrington, a woman whose reputation will endure as a testament to her creativity and resilience. This book is a testament to the power of art and friendship, and a fascinating exploration of a life that spanned war, incarceration, and self-discovery.
