Title: A descriptive, fascinating read
Review: I really enjoyed this book. After I saw a special on Lillian Helllman on PBS, I purchased this book. She led a fascinating life and her immediate friends...Dorothy Parker and lovers...Dashiell Hammett confirmed this. Pentimento takes you through time as you visit her family in New Orleans, her friends in New York and London and her deep resentment and bitterness over the McCarthy era...that caused her to suffer greatly because she would not bend to their will. She was an amazing woman, who led an amazing life and Pentimento delves deep into the characters of her life that made an impact. Pentimento is a great read and find.
