Women Who Wrote as Men - A Short Story Collection
Today, we are all assured that being ‘ourselves’ is what we can not only strive for but will be accepted as. That has not always been true. In previous centuries, and even generations, to be a woman was to be second class. Mere chattel to do the bidding and whims of men. Perhaps a minor exception if you were Queen or of high rank but any male in near orbit was assumed to be not your equal, but your better. But in the history of poetry, plays and stories some of our very finest artistic achievements have been from the brains, hearts and pens of women. Some eventually were published as themselves. As mass distribution of periodicals meant publishers appetite required more stories and a female name might not deter or need to be changed. But not always. In this volume we discover many who, despite their talents, assumed literary names of men or at best used initials to blur their identities. George Eliot, Louisa May Alcott, Vernon Lee are but three in a host of many whose lexicons sparkle, whose narrative drive and gilded talents place these women at the forefront of everyone’s literature. 01 - The Women Who Wrote as Men - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction 02 - The Lifted Veil - Part 1 by George Eliot 03 - The Lifted Veil - Part 2 by George Eliot 04 - Perilous Play by Louisa May Alcott writing as A M Bernard 05 - An Irish Problem by Somerville and Ross 06 - Amour Dure - Part 1 by Violet Paget writing as Vernon Lee 07 - Amour Dure - Part 2 by Violet Paget writing as Vernon Lee 08 - An Unexpected Fare by Mary Tuttiett writing as Maxwell Gray 09 - Behind the Curtain by Gertrude Barrows Bennett writing as Francis Stevens 10 - A Lost Masterpiece by Mary Chavelita Dunne Bright writing as George Egerton 11 - The Death Mask by H D Everett writing as Theo Parker 12 - The Lame Priest by Susan Morrow writing as S Carleton 13 - A Rainy Day by Mary Elizabeth Hawker writing as Lanoe Falconer 14 - The Prediction - Part 1 by Mary Diana Dods writing as David Lyndsey 15 - The Prediction - Part 2 by Mary Diana Dods writing as David Lyndsey
