Edna Ferber still rocks

"Her shameless little gown exposed more than it should have. Few of Sophy's customers were shocked, mainly chorus girls and ladies of doubtful complexion in search of cheap and ultra footgear, and--to use a health term--hardened by exposure." https://americanliterature.com/author/edna-ferber/short-story/what-she-wore

Edna Ferber “One of the Old Girls”

Edna Ferber: "Effie had improved with the years, and ripened with experience. The years had brought a certain hardness about the jaw. You can't rub up against the sharp edges of this world and expect to come out without a scratch or so." https://americanliterature.com/author/edna-ferber/short-story/one-of-the-old-girls

New #bookmail: a pair of Ferbers...or, if this was one book, her oft-forgotten novel GIANT SARATOGA TRUNK. I've had #EdnaFerber on my shelves for years....unread. The one novel I'm most interested in reading is, actually, COME AND GET IT, about the logging industry. It's not as well known as her other books, but I really love the 1936 Frances Farmer movie and so I've been meaning to go and get it for years now. I'll start with this handsome pair, with terrific #coverdesign by Oliver Munday for @harperperennial. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7rRtqTBT3p/?igshid=clejeqdcnzfr

Edna Ferber’s Bush League Hero

Edna Ferber: "When is a ball player not a ball player? Above the storm of facetious replies I shout the answer: When he's a shoe clerk." https://americanliterature.com/author/edna-ferber/short-story/a-bush-league-hero

Edna Ferber’s One of the Old Girls

"Love's young dream is all right. But you've reached the age when you let your cigar ash dribble down onto your vest. Now me, I've got a kimono nature but a straight-front job, and it's kept me young.“ https://americanliterature.com/author/edna-ferber/short-story/one-of-the-old-girls
