I want to discover ways to discriminate the important things in human life. I want to find ways of getting past this blind fumbling with existence. - Marion Milner, from A Life of Ones Own.How often do we really ask ourselves, What will make me happy? What do I really want from life? In A Life of Ones Own Marion Milner, a renowned British psychoanalyst, artist and autobiographer, takes us on an extraordinary and compelling seven-year inward journey to discover what it is that makes her happy.On its first publication, W. H. Auden found the book as exciting as a detective story and, as Milner searches out clues, the reader quickly becomes involved in the chase. Using her own personal diaries, she analyses moments of everyday life that can bring surprising joy, such as walking, listening to music, and drawing. She also records, in a disarmingly clear and insightful manner, the struggle between the urge to order and control ones thoughts and standing back to let them wander where they may.A pioneering account of lived experience that also anticipates the contemporary phenomenon of mindfulness, A Life of Ones Own is a great adventure in thinking and living whose insights remain as fresh today as they were on the books first publication in the 1930s.This Routledge Classics edition includes a revised Introduction by Rachel Bowlby.
