Summary |
The Voice of Harriet Taylor Mill is a work about collaboration: Harriet's life with her lover, friends, and members of her family; Harriet's joint work with John Stuart Mill; the author's interaction with the reader. Jacobs explores and expands the concept of biography using Salman Rushdie's analogy of history as a process of 'chutnification'. She gives Harriet's life 'shape and form - that is to say, meaning' in a way that will 'possess the authentic taste of truth' |
