Twelve distinguished short stories about what we used to call the American proletariat. People on strike; people on relief; people waiting for Sacco and Vanzetti to die; a young girl, pregnant, hungray yet somwhow assuged by the pear tree outside her window. Le Suer describees them with a passionate and convincingg partisianship
Miss Le Suer has developed a personal style, is moved by tremendous themes of the modern world and suffuses her work with a rather rare quality of reverence for humanity, of intimacy and pride regarding women and motherhood. Her 'Annunciation' is the evocation of an original artist beautifully reverent, with high solemnity, gravely achieved affirmations of life, an approach too infrequent amomng the realist and naturalist school of writers.
