Written by: Vivian Gornick
Publisher: Beacon Press (September 1996)
The author of the highly praised Fierce Attachments explores the fear of loneliness and the search for self-knowledge. Many of us, especially women, find ourselves struggling with both the desire for independence and meaningful work, and the need for connections with others. In Approaching Eye Level, Gornick addresses this painful, central issue in our lives, showing us how we can come to know ourselves only by participating in the world.
