How We Might Live - At Home with Jane & William Morris by Suzanne Fagence Cooper

William Morris was a giant of the Victorian age.  His beautiful creations and radical philosophies are still with us today, but his wife Jane is too often relegated to a footnote, an artist's model given no personality of her own.

In truth, their partnership was the central collaboration of their lives.  Together, they overturned conventional distinctions between work and play, public and private spaces, women and men, even the Victorian class structure.  Through their houses, their friendships and their creations, they experimented with fruitful ways of living and working.

How We Might Live explores the lives and legacies of Jane and William Morris, finally giving Jane's work the attention it deserves and taking us inside two lives of unparalleled creative artistry
