Summary

This intimate account of the months of Patten's employment offers a rare glimpse of O'Keefe's daily life in the days when she could no longer see well enough to paint. Rich with poignant anecdotes that enrich our knowledge of the legendary artist--at the age of ninety-seven, for example, she still enjoyed being read aloud to from Kandinsky's 'Concerning the Spiritual in Art--this book is not just a footnote to art history but a portrait of old age and the friendship between two women.
