Her America

With its thoughtful introduction by two widely published Glaspell scholars, Her America marks an important contribution to the ongoing critical and scholarly efforts to return Glaspell to her former preeminence as a major writer. The universality and relevance of her work to political and social issues that continue to preoccupy American discourse - free speech, ethics, civic justice, immigration, adoption, and gender - establish her as a direct descendant of the American tradition of short fiction derived from Hawthorne, Poe, and Twain.
