The author played vital roles in writing and the other arts. As a creator in her own field, she was a pioneer in abstract, playful, and communicative use of language. She experimented in a wide range of literary forms including books for children such as this one. An ardent American from a distance, she lived in France during most of her adult life and chose to endure World War 2 there. This is a story about a girl. Rose was her name and would she have been Rose if her name had not been Rose and would she have been Rose if she had been a twin. She used to think and then used to think again.... and a boy.... I am Willie I am not like Rose I would be Willie what ever arose. I would be Willie if Henry were my name I would be Willie always Willie all the same.
