A sly, smiling doorway into 1920s america, Catty Atkins invites you to step inside a small town where manners are tested, and wit is a currency. This novel of manners blends humorous fiction with keen social satire, tracing rural community life through the eyes of a landscape of families, miscommunications, and small-town loyalties. Kelland's deft depictions illuminate the everyday details of family dynamics and public pretence, while quietly exposing the gears of social vanity that turn behind the clapboards and storefronts.

Produktbeschreibung
A sly, smiling doorway into 1920s america, Catty Atkins invites you to step inside a small town where manners are tested, and wit is a currency. This novel of manners blends humorous fiction with keen social satire, tracing rural community life through the eyes of a landscape of families, miscommunications, and small-town loyalties. Kelland's deft depictions illuminate the everyday details of family dynamics and public pretence, while quietly exposing the gears of social vanity that turn behind the clapboards and storefronts. It's both a portrait of its era and a mirror for readers today, offering warmth, sly humour, and characters you'll recognise long after the last page. Celebrated as a cornerstone of american literature satire, Catty Atkins holds enduring literary and historical significance for casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike. Its public domain status makes it a natural addition to library collection appeals, a touchstone for those exploring 1920s america and pulp era fiction, and a welcome anchor for public domain readers seeking authentic old-school storytelling. Selling points resonate just as clearly in this edition: out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions; restored for today's and future generations; more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A welcome entry to any shelf devoted to small town america, social satire themes, and the quiet power of well-wrought fiction.
