Miss Grief

An American novelist, poet, and short story writer Constance Fenimore Woolson was one of the few nineteenth-century women writers considered the equal of her male peers. 

Such a “Miss Grief”, the Woolson most famous story, narrated about the unsaid and the unsayable in the lives of people who lived in the nineteenth century, particularly women artists. Woolson raises ticklish questions about the pressure to satisfy publishers in order to find an audience and to make money, about the dangers of refusing to revise, and about the anxiety of influence in the face of more successful writers.

It is the veracious story about the careers of many women writers in the nineteenth century. “Miss Grief” will be interesting for everyone who wants to know more about the history of literature. Enjoy the reading.
