The Virgin of Bennington

by Kathleen Norris


Review this book!

Here Kathleen Norris, poet, and author of THE CLOISTER WALK recalls her coming-of-age at Bennington College in the 1960s, where she was isolated as a shy and prudent loner amidst the radical experimentation of her place and time. In the years she spent subsequently in New York City as a secretary at the Academy of American Poets, she honed her love of literature in the famous night life of bohemia with the help of her mentor AAP director Betty Kray.

Media Reviews

"THE VIRGIN OF BENNINGTON is both intimate and detached, written from the perspective of the guest at the party who mingles and, at the same time, observes coolly from a spot next to the punch bowl. Its organization overturns many conventional notions of how nonfiction should proceed."
