Miss Lulu Bett - Gale Zona

Before it was a Pulitzer Prize-winning play and a successful silent film, Zona Gale's Miss Lulu Bett was the best-selling novel of 1920. A departure from Gale's earlier idyllic Friendship Village stories, Miss Lulu Bett is the story of a small-town Midwestern spinster who gets a chance at both marriage and feminist awakening—an example of the Midwestern 'revolt from the village' movement. This edition brings together, for the first time, the original novel and the play (including both endings).
