New Books Stir Interest as Two Last Works Debut
A review highlights William de Morgan's The Old Man's Youth and Eleanor H. Porter's Sister Sue. The former, unfinished at his death, finished by his wife, is a humane autobiographic tale of youth seen through an ailing elder, likely to outlive most of the author's other work. Porter’s Sister Sue stars a self sacrificing heroine who puts family first, offering a stronger ending and enduring appeal, though perhaps not matching Pollyanna in popularity.
