    About this ebook

    Kathleen Norris was the most well-paid writer of her time, had her style compared to Henry James and saw her works become popular in radio-novels. In her personal life, she was an ardent feminist, calling for the abolition of capitol punishment, supporting women's rights and campaigning for the outlaw of nuclear weapons.

    The seven short stories that critic August Nemo carefully selected provide an overview of the themes and language of this important writer. Enjoy your reading!
