This was a pretty good biography of the writer's life. It talks about her Caribbean childhood which inspired Wide Sargasso Sea then goes about her relationship with Ford Madox Ford who discovered her and also used Jean. I think it's cool, that Jean wrote her masterpiece in her old age and then her old books were rediscovered. The only problem that I had with the book is that I felt like the writer was making fun of the squabbles Jean had with her neighbors when she was elderly. I felt like it could have been done with more compassion.
