Sylvia, a Memoir

Abstract

Susanna Pinney recalls her meetings with Sylvia Townsend Warner, first as a child in the 1950s, and then at greater length in the 1970s, when she was Warner’s typist for the Kingdoms of Elfin stories as well as her friend and a regular visitor. The memoir also touches on the author’s role as one of Warner’s literary executors (along with William Maxwell).
