Conundrum is Jan Morris’s intimate and beautifully written account of her extraordinary life: a reflection on childhood, youth and marriage, adventure and the spirit of travel, her love affair with Venice and her beloved Wales. However, at its heart, lies the profoundly illuminating story of her transition from man to woman – which culminated in gender reassignment surgery – its pains and joys, frustrations and discoveries. Marking 50 years since first publication, this unique anniversary edition is threaded with photographs that offer snapshots of Morris’s life and includes binding lettering that reflects the traditional carving of her native Wales. Writer and activist CN Lester both critiques and praises the text in an incisive new introduction bringing this wondrous piece of writing firmly up to date.
