This was a pivotal period in Mayerâ?Ts life and career, and she documented it in remarkable detail in her 1971 journal, where her plans, enthusiasms, ambitions and insecurities, as well as her opinions about the art around her, are recorded with self-awareness and honesty, along with her concerns about friendship, money and love. This illustrated edition of Excerpts from the 1971 Journal of Rosemary Mayerâ?"previously published in a limited run of 300 copiesâ?"includes a new introduction and is expanded to twice the size of the first edition.
