Grace Irwin has had a career varied and independent enough to satisfy any feminist: as classicist, teacher, novelist, lecturer, play-director, amateur actress, pastor, and ordained minister; also home-maker, cook, baker, and party-giver. Here, however, her aim is to pay tribute to others, as she writes with disarming admiration and warmth in prise of three men whose lives and personalities contributed largely to her own: two John Irwins--one her farther, the other her brother, well known for his achievements in forestry and publishing--and Herbert Harold Kent, architect and pastor. She relates the intertwining of their lives and hers in highly readable, often pungent, prose. Herself completely and joyfully feminine, she nonetheless resents the current downgrading of the Male Fact--a theme that runs through this lively, celebratory memoir.243p.plstesHoffman, William and Headley, Lake.
