Sylvia Bliss, author of the works in "Uncut Leaves", was a distinctive figure in the Vermont of her time, quiet, forceful, self-disciplined, playing a curious small role in the introduction of Freudian thought in America, showing how an isolated figure could develop her talents, grow as an artist and thinker, and come to a position of respect and accomplishment at the end of a long life. This biographical study centers on life experience as ground for emerging reflective positions.
