Sarah Orne Jewett: 60 books

S’il est vrai que le roman soit le reflet des mœurs et que toutes les révolutions qui se produisent dans notre manière de penser et de vivre y trouvent un écho, s’il est vrai que les périodes de secousses violentes, de transformations profondes, aient donné à la littérature d’imagination...

Embellished with picturesque descriptions A Marsh Island is one of Jewett's extraordinary works. The narration follows an artist on the journey of self-discovery. Presenting the conventional role of women in a charming manner this work subtly hints at the liberty of women and their desire to assert themselves. A thought-provoking work!

This is a collection of short stories with astounding and multifarious themes. Jewett has created a constellation of profound and round characters that develop with the plot of the story. This amazing collection monopolizes the readers attention from the outset.

Dwelling on the past, Jewett creates before the reader, a world of profound relations and earnestness. In a simple style, she elucidates such characters to which life and love are a source of happiness and contentment. Charming!
