Summary:
"As a young
woman
, the late
Ella
Manuel
left the busy shipping community of Lewisporte,
Newfoundland
, for the wider world in the 1920s, but eventually returned to the island, as a single mother, to settle in Bonne Bay. An accomplished writer, broadcaster, journalist, advocate for peace, and staunch feminist,
Manuel
would leave an indelible mark on the culture she documented and celebrated in her work. Here, biographer Antony Berger expertly chronicles the
life
of
Ella
Manuel
and incorporates unpublished radio scripts and brilliant extracts from her private journals to bring
Manuel
to the page in her own words. Brimming with insight and wit,
No
Place
for a
Woman
opens an illuminating window on
life
in twentieth-century
Newfoundland
, and preserves the work of a truly original Newfoundlander."--Publisher.
