The Golden Notebook opens Goodreads in a new tab

Anna Wulf is a young writer with writer's block, divorced with a small daughter and disillusioned by politics and love. She keeps four notebooks: black for her writing life, red for politics, yellow for her emotions and relationships, and blue for a daily diary. As her life threatens to fragment, a fifth, golden notebook may allow her to bring the strands together and recover. A landmark novel of female experience, freedom and breakdown.
