Gravity: Selected Letters of Olivia Langdon Clemens by Barbara Snedecor. Reviewed by Barbara Snedecor.
Barbara is Director Emerita of the Elmira College Center for Mark Twain Studies and Assistant Professor of American
Literature. For years, Olivia Langdon Clemens has existed in the background of her husband, Samuel Langhorne Clemens - Mark Twain. Now, in a recently-published letter collection, readers are invited to meet Olivia on her own terms, in her own voice, as loving daughter and wife, enduring friend, nurse and care giver, mother, financier, designer, world traveler, and partner to her world famous spouse. Signed copies of this book will be available for purchase.
