Elizabeth: Learning to dress myself from the inside out

The arduous path of becoming woman. Elizabeth—Learning to Dress Myself from the Inside Out narrates Mary Elizabeth Moloney’s search for authentic womanhood. Crippled by her mother’s intent to dress her in her own image, by her years in the convent, and later in a marriage, she sought help. Through dream-work with a wise Jungian analyst, she learned to step back from her doll-like façade, to take responsibility for her unlived years, to recognize and deal with her addictive personality, and to explore the richness of her gift as woman and as writer.
