PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION: "Thanks to Mrs. Kroeber's simple, supple style, the stories all succeed as stories; they please, engage, move, or divert without depending for their effect on their exotic source."--The New Yorker "The varying but almost always superb story style of these narratives will speak to all."--New York Herald Tribune "This is a jewel of a book."--San Francisco Chronicle "These stories enlarge life. They remind us of Shakespeare and Aeschylus.... That Mrs. Kroeber's book should generate such thoughts is proof of its power and beauty."--New York Times Book Review
