She was a tireless researcher, a true storyteller, an artist passionately dedicated to a place little known and a people largely misunderstood. Blasted by some critics, revered by others for her vivid detail and depth of feeling, Sandoz has achieved a secure place in American literature. Her letters, edited by Helen Winter Stauffer, reveal extraordinary courage and zest for life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded here are letters written by Sandoz over nearly forty years--from 1928, the year of her father's death and a critical one for her creative development, to 1966, the year of her own death. They allow memorable glimpses of the professional and private person: her struggles to learn her craft in spite of an unsupportive family and hard-won formal education, her experiences in gathering material, her relationships with editors and publishers, her work with fledgling writers, and her commitment to art and to various social concerns.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Nebraska Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47615052284055,"sku":"9780803242067","price":7918.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780803242067.webp?v=1775097897","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/letters-of-mari-sandoz-9780803242067","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
