An Angel at My Table is a 1990 New Zealand-Australian-British film directed by Jane Campion.
Nene Janet Paterson Clutha ONZ CBE (28 August 1924 – 29 January 2004) better known by her pen name of Janet Frame, was a New Zealand author. She wrote novels, short stories, poetry, juvenile fiction, and an autobiography. Frame's celebrity derived from her dramatic personal history as well as her literary career. Following years of psychiatric hospitalisation, Frame was scheduled for a lobotomy that was cancelled when, just days before the procedure, her début publication of short stories was unexpectedly awarded a national literary prize.

'"For your own good" is a persuasive argument that will eventually make a man agree to his own destruction.''
Janet Frame (b. 1924), New Zealander novelist, poet. Faces in the Water
“Much of living is an attempt to preserve oneself by annexing and occupying others.”
― Janet Frame, Faces in the Water
Poem by Janet Frame
I TAKE INTO MY ARMS MORE THAN I CAN BEAR TO HOLD
I take into my arms more than I can bear to hold
I am toppled by the world
a creation of ladders, pianos, stairs cut into the rock
a devouring world of teeth where even the common snail
eats the heart out of a forest
as you and I do, who are human, at night
yet still I take into my arms more than I can bear to hold.
