Title: Disappointing - and written by Jeanette (not Gene)
Product review: "Freckles Comes Home" was actually written by Gene Stratton Porter's daughter Jeanette, some 5 years after her mother's death.The prose is stilted and the characterization implausible - the book opens with Freckles languishing in the Irish mansion of his blustering, autocratic uncle and downtrodden aunt, too proud to tell Mr McLean and the Angel that he is unhappy and wants to come home to Indiana. These are simply not the same people that Gene Stratton Porter wrote about in "Freckles".Nothing original except for the unlikely story-line - nature notes (and descriptions of the American characters and scene) are transparently borrowed from "Freckles"
