520    "A thrillingly elegant yet raw evocation of a woman 
       clawing her way to a creative life, inspired by the story 
       of surrealist artist Leonora Carrington. Born into a 
       wealthy family in northern England, sent to boarding 
       school, and educated by nuns, Ivory Frame escapes to 
       interwar Paris where she finds herself through art, living
       amongst the most brilliant and bohemian people- the 
       surrealists.Torn between a volatile and all-consuming 
       affair with a Russian painter, and her soaring ambition, 
       Ivory's life is violently interrupted by the Second World 
       War. But her urge to create never deserts her. Now, aged 
       90, Ivory labours defiantly in the frozen north at her 
       last, greatest artwork - a vast account of animal language
       - alone except for her sharp research assistant Skeet. 
       Then unexpected news from the past arrives... This 
       magnificently fervent, complex woman is told that she has 
       a grandchild, despite never having had a child of her 
       own..." -- Provided by publisher.
