A very nice collection of journals, it's nice to see the intersection of quotidian and artistic in artist's days.
Includes the M.F.K. Fisher's "Swiss Journal" which she kept in
Bern from 7 Aug. to 13 Nov. 1938 writing about her husband
Dillwyn Parrish's disease and subsequent surgery. Reprinted in

ed. Daniel Halpern, Vintage, Jan. 1990: 129-146,
and again as "Berne Journal" in Fisher's posthumous volume
of writings Stay Me, Oh Comfort Me.
