Although her unorthodox appro ach to teaching Maori children--formulated on the concept of key vocabulary based on native imagery--won her international fame as an innovator, Ashton-Warner frequently expressed her dislike of teaching. This biography, the first book by New Zealand freelance r Wood, supplies factual evidence as to the parallels between Ash ton-Warner's ambivalence in areas of her own life and that of the heroines of her novels, especially the bestseller Spinster. We'r e shown that life on her own terms was a condition set down by As hton-Warner. She was born in 1906 into an eccentric New Zealand f amily; she combined a nontraditional marriage with an erratic car eer as teacher-writer. She thrived on love-hate relationships, wa s a deeply restless woman, flirtatious even in old age, alcoholic and, yet, as her biographer demonstrates, strangely charismatic. Photos.
