- Synopsis
- Nancy Hale (1908-1988) began publishing short stories in The New Yorker in the 1930s, and her career spanned the next fifty years. Her novel The Prodigal Women was a runaway bestseller in 1942. Yet today Nancy Hale is nearly forgotten. This collection of seven short stories and numerous critical essays seeks to bring Hale's work to today's readers. Though she writes about an effete group of characters - wealthy, artistic women from New England or Virginia - Hale captures the joys and sadness of the human condition.
