What is Eternity's Sunrise : a Way of Keeping a Diary about?
Following on from A Life of Ones Own and An Experiment in Leisure , Eternitys Sunrise explores Marion Milners way of keeping a diary. Recording small private moments, she builds up a store of bead memories. A carved duck, a sprig of asphodel, moments captured in her travels in Greece, Kashmir and Israel, circus clowns, a painting - each makes up a 'bead' that has a warmth or glow which comes in response to asking the simple What is the most important thing that happened yesterday? From these beads sacred, horrific, profane, funny grows a sense of an answering activity, the result of turning ones attention inwards to experience real joy. What Marion Milner conveys so vividly and inspirationally is her lifelong intention to live as completely as possible in the moment. With a new introduction by Hugh Haughton, Eternitys Sunrise will be essential reading for all those interested in reflecting on the nature of their own happiness whether readers from a literary, an artistic, a historical, an educational or a psychoanalytic/psychotherapeutic background.
