Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Under the Crust
I am so tired of this strenuous life that I feel that if I do not get out of it and go back to some thing that is calm and natural I shall die. It is all so hollow and unreal. 'why, we are all trying to do the same thing and all trying to think the same thing, or, at least, say the same thing. We do not think at all. Scores of women come pouring into my house on my days and pour out again, content only to say they have left cards on my table, and then if I do not leave cards on their tables they all think I am rude and put on aii's because I live in a big house. Forty women called here to-day, and thirty-nine of them said precisely the same thing.
