A vivid and intimate memoir, An Impossible Woman: The Memories of Dottoressa Moor chronicles the extraordinary life of Elisabeth Moor, an eccentric and fiercely independent woman who made the sun-drenched island of Capri her home. Edited and presented with an epilogue by the celebrated novelist Graham Greene, the book captures Dottoressa Moor's remarkable personality through her own candid recollections, painting a rich portrait of life on Capri and the colourful cast of expatriates, artists, and locals who passed through her world. Greene's editorial touch lends the narrative both warmth and literary distinction, transforming personal memory into something approaching social history. The result is a compelling and affectionate tribute to a woman who defied convention at every turn, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew her.
