Miss Lulu Bett - Paperback

by Zona Gale (Author), Marc Seals (Introduction by)

Before it was a Pulitzer Prize-winning play and a successful silent film, Zona Gale's Miss Lulu Bett was the best-selling novel of 1920. A departure from Gale's earlier idyllic Friendship Village stories, Miss Lulu Bett is the story of a small-town Midwestern spinster who gets a chance at both marriage and feminist awakening--an example of the Midwestern "revolt from the village" movement. This edition brings together, for the first time, the original novel and the play (including both endings).
