Easter Lily and a Hollow End Feud Tale in Boston Weekly
A cluttered domestic scene at Easter unfolds with a family from the Hollow End feud of the Greers and Summits. Philip Greer meets Azalea Greer at a confirmation service, a Lily broken on the ground as she departs. The piece threads a long-standing cross-family quarrel, social contrasts between Hollow End and Summit, and a budding romance amid rural and town life. The tale interweaves family history, social customs, and a glimpse of jewelry gossip from Mme Bonaparte’s era alongside a tangent about a tomb inscription and Afghan language work.
