Filmmaker with Frances Steloff and Lawrence Durrell at one of The Gotham Book Mart’s famous book signing parties.

“A moving account of the life of Frances Steloff which turns out to be a history-in-little of modern American literature.  Compulsory viewing for lovers of the arts.”

                                                                        --Lawrence Durrell

What a beautiful film.  Intelligent and sensitive.  One of the best of its kind I’ve ever seen…The film has real historical value as a record of a cultural monument—Frances Steloff is a cultural hero.”
