Tennant writes in glittering, witty prose of her life at this time: one of the last debutantes to be presented at court, she became a young woman lurching from one marriage to the next, with a small child to support, a fledgling writing career and a host of connections on the London literary scene. She remained dependent on her parents until her late 20s and never felt she had grown up until her daughter was born in 1969. "If I have given birth to a woman, I ponder afterwards, can I at last give up being a girl?" Wry and poignant by turns, Girlitude is a sparkling portrait of the writer's golden years, and a vivid account of her changing times. --Catherine Taylor
