title: Southwestern Women Writers and the Vision of Goodness: Mary Austin, Willa Cather, Laura Adams Armer, Peggy Pond Church and Alice Marriott
author: Catharine Savage Brosman
description: "Neglected and overlooked as a California author, Laura Arner deserves a second life. Brosman gives that to her. The Arizona years, the years lived in close conjunction with the Navajo, are spellbinding."-Constance Rowell Mastores, author of A Deep But Dazzling Darkness "Brosman explores deftly and sympathetically the fiction of five women who wrote of the American Southwest, revealing that these ostensibly 'regional' works, so rich in texture of time and place, deal compellingly with universal themes." --Allen Frederick Stein, North Carolina State University, author of After the Vows Were Spoken: Marriage in American Literary Realism.<br /><br />"A fresh and finely nuanced interpretation of the response by a group of women writers to the American Southwest. It should be of great interest to anyone concerned with American regional expression." --Donald Pizer, author of Toward A Modernist Style: John Dos Passos
