Queed

Серия: "-"

1911. With a frontispiece by R. M. Crosby. A best-selling volume by Harrison, a journalist, novelist and social critic. His novels explored southernculture and the social issues of his time including feminism, child labor, capitalism and cultural change. Queed begins: It was five of a November afternoon, crisp and sharp, and already running into dusk. Down the street came a girl and a dog, rather a small girl and quite a behemothian dog. If shehad been a shade smaller, or he a shade more behemothian, the thing would have approached a parody on one’s settled idea of a girl and a dog. She had enough height to save that, but it was the narrowest sort of squeak. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
