SEDGWICK, ANNE DOUGLAS (MRS BASIL DE SÉLINCOURT). Christmas roses, and other stories. *$2.25 (2½c) Houghton
20–21186
The titles of these stories are: Christmas roses; Hepaticas; Daffodils; Pansies; Pink foxgloves; Carnations; Staking a larkspur; Evening primroses; Autumn crocuses; and in each there is something in the delicately complicated situation or in revelation of character of which the flower is a symbol. The stories are all English in background and reflect the war.
“Quiet delicacy of style and subtle character analysis mark these nine flower-named stories.”
