Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840-1894) was one of the few nineteenth-century women writers considered the equal of her male peers. Harper & Brothers was so enamored of her work that the firm agreed to publish whatever she could write. In this gathering, Rioux has chosen fiction over the course of Woolson's life, including "In Sloane Street," never published since it first appeared in Harper's Bazaar. Woolson's stories travel from the rural Midwest to the deep South and then across the Atlantic to Italy and England. Her strong characters and indelible settings provide continuity throughout this collection as do her concerns with passion, creativity, imagination, and the demands of society. Whether portraying the keeper of a Union soldiers' cemetery in the defeated South, a woman writer whose genius goes unrecognized, or the ex-pat denizens of Florence, Woolson's deft characterization and subtlety create a broad landscape of Americans and their ways no matter where they lived" -- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Foreword by Colm Toibin -- Introduction by Anne Boyd Rioux -- St. Clair flats -- Solomon -- Rodman the keeper -- Sister St. Luke -- Miss Grief -- A Florentine experiment -- In Sloane Street. 650 0 $a Americans $z England $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Americans $z Italy $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Middle West $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Southern States $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807488 651 7 $a England. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01219920 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 651 7 $a Middle West. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240052 651 7 $a Southern States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244550 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 700 1 $a Rioux, Anne Boyd, $e editor. 700 1 $a Toibon, Colm, $d 1955- $e writer of foreword. 740 02 $a Miss Grief. 941 $a 5 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220104014339.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713012735.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717031150.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180102051816.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20160618010259.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CC116E8CE1D611E59B37A7B1DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b LG@Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
