1 1 y separately published work icon The Crag : Castlecrag 1924-1938 Wanda Spathopoulos , Blackheath : Brandl and Schlesinger , 2007 Z1471691 2007 single work autobiography This is a rare, first-hand account of life in Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin's visionary suburb, Castlecrag, in the 1920s and 30s. Spathopoulos' memory is acute and detailed, supplemented by careful research of the period. She brings to life the world of an extraordinary and unique community with its parties, theatrical events and anthroposophical festivals. There are vivid portraits of various residents and their idiosyncrasies in a community presided over by the larger-than-life Marion and her quiet, gentle husband Walter, who lived according tho their vision of 'Building for Nature'.
