Turn: The Journal of an Artist

With the same brilliance shown in her Daybook, Truitt continues here to reflect upn herself, her art, her children, and the world around her as she comes to terms with age and the inevitable challenge of death. In Turn, Truitt chronicles the nine months she spent as acting director of the artists' colony Yaddo, her children's passage into adulthood and her acceptance of them as peers, and the tremendous changes in her work she undergoes while reconciling herself to her own vulnerability in the art world.
