About this listen

Two great short stories from Edna Ferber for your enjoyment. When you listen to her writing style you begin tom appreciate how much she says with a minimum of words- yet we know her characters and learn her story completely.

Few people now recollect Edna Ferber, once a best-selling novelist. Nevertheless she numbered among her champions Somerset Maugham, who in 1948 told playwright Garson Kanin: "I admire Edna Ferber. She's a true professional." To Kanin's inquiry, "What sort of writer would you call her?", Maugham responded: "The best sort. She writes because she must, compulsively. She couldn't not write, if you take my meaning."
