Description

Paul, a Pittsburgh schoolboy and theatre usher, loathes Cordelia Street and people who cannot share his hunger for beautiful things. Suspended, he steals and runs to New York for a brief week at the Waldorf; when the money ends, a train waits. Cather's title story of luxury and refusal leads a volume of other tales in the same sharp climate.

Author

Willa Cather was an American Pulitzer Prize winning author who achieved recognition for her novels of frontier life on the Great Plains, in works such as O Pioneers!, My Antonia. Although Cather began her writing career as a journalist, she made a distinction between journalism, which she saw as being primarily informative, and literature, which she saw as an art form.
