An intimate portrait of artist Margaret Coen by her daughter, Meg Stewart. Margaret was born into an era when it wasn't easy for a woman to forge an artistic career. Yet she survived as a commercial artist during the Depression, joining Sydney's bohemian set in their sketch clubs and raucous studio parties. She became close friends with Norman Lindsay and married poet Douglas Stewart, which immediately gave her entrée into Sydney's literary circles of the time. Meg tells her mother's story in Margaret's voice, with a stream of anecdotes and personal details that build a captivating picture of her life, and of Australian social and artistic history in this era. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Coen
