About the Book

With uncompromising clarity, in her careful, delicate prose, antonia White looks at the pains and joys of growing up, of falling in and out of love, the borderlands between love and loneliness, sanity and madness, belief and the loss of faith.

First published in 1954, STRANGERS is here extended to include her autobiographical story, Surprise Visit; together they present some of Antonia White's finest writing.
