1 12 y separately published work icon Dying : A Memoir Donald Horne , Myfanwy Gollan , Camberwell : Penguin , 2007 Z1430747 2007 selected work autobiography biography essay 'On learning that his illness was terminal, Donald Home began dictating his experience of dying, and his resulting journal is full of courage, honesty, insight and humour. Ever the intellectual, he also recorded his last thoughts on some of the big human questions: faith and regret, the uses of art, the rewards of the engaged mind. And on contemporary dilemmas such as the Iraq War, anti-Americanism and the meaning of democracy. These essays have been refined by his wife and long-time editor, Myfanwy, who has also written her own inspirational account of Donald's final weeks.' (Publisher's blurb)
