One Writer's Beginnings by Eudora Welty

3.0

---

This is a bit of a slow burn at first. There are highs when the author begins to see her parents and her family in general through different lenses, reflecting on how their choices and identities made her identity, as well as her life as an author, possible. A bit disjointed at times, it is still a brief read that can offer a lot to someone interested in the author in particular, or in the general reflection on how the writing life is born.
