Tarkington and Glasgow Tie To New Novels And Prose
In a review fashion the piece surveys Booth Tarkington’s The Flirt with Ellen Glasgow commenting on its portrayal of midwest dance worlds where women understand both visions while men miss the underwater view. It notes Glasgow’s preference for novels over drama and praises Bunker Bean’s Napoleon twist and Westermayr’s Adara a tale of Indian intrigue with strong historical detail. The piece also highlights Kewpie doll artist Rose O Neal’s popular rise and the doll’s cheerful impact on readers.
