Fanny

Edmund White

first published 2003 Vintage, 2004 paperback 304 pages

Fanny Trollope, mother of the novellist Anthony, begins to write a biography of her old friend Frances Wright, the Scottish radical and feminist. The 'biography' soon degenerates into a settling of scores with Fanny Wright and wild digressions on the misadventures of Mrs Trollope's own family.
