University of Nebraska, 2019 Advisor: Timothy Schaffert This critical component of the creative thesis All My Mother’s Lovers explores the question of fiction writers’ responsibility to themselves, their work, and their readers in the age of social media and easy access of readers to writers and vice versa. "All My Mother's Lovers" is a wholly unique exploration of identity, sexuality and the all-consuming power of love. The men Maggie meets challenge her to see Iris not only as her flawed mother, but also as a human being filled with her own complex emotions and desires. Unfolding over the course of nine days, and written with enormous heart, All My Mother's Lovers is a meditation on the universality and particularity of family ties, grief, and generational divides, as well as a tender and biting portrait of sex, gender, and identity. Maggie's relationship with Iris had always been strained, in part due to Iris's inability to accept Maggie's sexuality. The letters are addressed to five men that Maggie has never once heard Iris mention.ĭesperate to find out who these men could possibly be, Maggie leaves behind her grieving father and brother (as well as her new girlfriend with whom she is falling madly in love) and embarks on a quest to hand-deliver each letter.Īlong her journey, Maggie learns she knew far less about both her mother and her father than she ever thought possible.

Susan has secured a fantastic serial deal with the Sunday Times, so there was a strict embargo until Monday 23rd September. In the unexpurgated edition Vickers shows what Beaton really had to say about those with whom he worked. Running through the diaries are his friendships with the Queen Mother, with Diana Cooper and Greta Garbo. Beaton records a vigorous social life among hostesses such as Emerald Cunard and Sybil Colefax, performers including Audrey Hepburn, Katharine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich, as well as artists from Cocteau and Picasso to Bacon and the young Hockney. Hugo Vickers has gone back to the originals to produce the Beaton diaries as they were written.
