DRIFTING WATERS
BY RACHEL SWETE MACNAMARA
Author of
"The Fringe of the Desert," "The Torch of Life," etc.
12vo. Illustrated. $1.35
The rebellion of a young girl, budding into womanhood, against the jealous proprietorship of a mother's love. There has been much in the married life of this mother to account for her bitterness of soul and to explain her tyrannous affection that demands, from the daughter whom she loves, a singleness of devotion to the exclusion of everyone else. The daughter's fancy is in time caught in the meshes of love, and the clandestine expression of her attachment, which the circumstances demand, involves developments of far-reaching interest to the unfolding of the story. The scene is in part England, in part Egypt—the haunting, glowing, throbbing Egypt that the author has again made so real.
