First Edition. 16mo. Green cloth with gilt design to front cover. Gilt lettering to spine. An idyll of Mississippi. Mary Routh McEnery Stuart, working under the name Ruth McEnery Stuart, wrote a body of fiction and poetry based on the experiences she had in Arkansas, modeling characters,Êdialect, and even a fictional town on her interactions within the state. She was, both financially and critically, one of the most successful fiction writers of her time, and in recent years has been studied by feminist and social literary critics. In academic terms, Stuart belongs to the school of American local color writing that emphasizes regional characteristics in landscape, way of life, and language. Her works draw on three main threads of her experience: the white Òplain folkÓ of Washington, the immigrants and aristocrats of New Orleans, andÊAfrican AmericansÊin the South.Ê Very Good. Minor soiling to front cover. Sunning to spine. Binding tight. Textblock clean.
