Synopsis
Caroline Blackwood (1931-1996) was born into a rich Anglo-Irish aristocratic family. She rebelled against her background at an early age and led a hectic and bohemian life, which included marriages to the painter Lucian Freud, the pianist and composer Israel Citkowitz, and the poet Robert Lowell. In the 1970s Blackwood began to write. Among her books are several novels, including Great Granny Webster and Corrigan (both available asNYRB Classics); On the Perimeter , an account of the women’s anti-nuclear protest at Greenham Common; and The Last of the Duchess , about the old age of the Duchess of Windsor. Honor Moore’s collections of poems are Red Shoes, Darling, and Memoir . She edited Amy Lowell: Selected Poems for the Library of America and is author of The White Blackbird , a life of her grandmother, the painter Margarett Sargent.
