New York: A Laurel Edition/ Published by Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1978. Laurel Edition . Mass Market Paperback. Good. 12mo or 12° (Duodecimo): 6¾" x 7¾" tall. 125 pp. Solidly bound copy with moderate use, crisp pages and clean text. Browning on covers. Bent cover corners. Creases on cront cover. Olsen, the writer, teacher, and 1930s left-wing activist, was born in 1912 of East European parents committed to Socialist and Jewish enlightenment values. Her work reflects the discrimination and marginalization she felt as a young girl growing up in Omaha, Nebraska. Like other women of the time, Olsen was underappreciated even in leftist circles, which suffered much the same gender bias as the larger society. "Tell Me a Riddle," which received the O. Henry first prize for best American short story in 1961, is reprinted in this volume (edited by Rosenfelt, women's studies, Univ. of Maryland) along with seven critical essays by feminist literary scholars, previously published in books or journals, that give a contemporary appreciation to Olsen's work. Highly recommended for multicultural collections, women's studies, and all American literature collections. This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. "These stories have the lyric intensity of an Emily Dickinson poem and the scope of a Balzac novel." From the judges' citation for the Rea Award for the Short Story - Review. This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title., A Laurel Edition/ Published by Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1978, 2.5<
