This summer, she and her brother Corin, 36, opened a clandestine school for revolutionaries at the Parwich house, which he bought on behalf of the party for $46,000. For a two-week course in the W.R.P.'s avowed aim, "the overthrow of capitalism," students are charged $60 and asked to observe strict rules, which include keeping...

In 1961, she plunged militantly into Britain's ban-the-bomb movement, was arrested four times during demonstrations, stood up before a rally in Castro-style battle dress and sang a Cuban revolutionary song. Sometimes Vanessa suffers for her romantic impetuosity, but then, as Corin points out, "Vanessa likes to suffer." She transforms her sufferings into performances.
