"There is a fascination about them ... unlike any of the hundreds of volumes of short stories that have been given us during the past few years."— Boston Times.
THE MASTER-KNOT AND "ANOTHER STORY." By CONOVER DUFF.
Two tales told in letters. The first shows how "the master-knot of human fate" strangely linked two lovers in a Long Island house party with a quarry riot in Ohio. The second is full of breezy humor and describes New York life, uptown, in the park, and at the opera.
"Happily imagined and neatly worked out ... a high order of work."— New York Times.
"Whoever has written these stories has a delicate touch and a keen insight ... very cleverly told indeed, and the uncertainty is kept up to the last moment ... happy in its strength and delicacy. Altogether a precious little book, dealing with worldly people, who can be unconventional and loyal and consistently American."— Philadelphia Ledger.
