Description:
Harriet Lorence Nesbitt's memoirs, Apocalypse of Youth, reflect on her artwork, her advocacy for the mentally ill, and her social column to identify the conflicts that nearly produced an apocalypse, not only of youth but of hope. Yet hope is resilient, as Harriet shows us through people of worth, like those she has had the pleasure of interviewing.
