| | 1 | Author: | Wharton, Edith, 1862-1937 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | 'Copy': A Dialogue  | | | | Published: | 1995 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | MRS. AMBROSE DALE— forty, slender, still young—sits in her
drawing-room at the tea-table. The winter twilight is
falling, a lamp has been lit, there is a fire on the hearth,
and the room is pleasantly dim and flower-scented. Books are
scattered everywhere—mostly with autograph inscriptions "From
the Author"—and a large portrait of MRS. DALE at her
desk, with papers strewn about her, takes up one of the wall-panels. Before MRS. DALE stands HILDA, fair and
twenty, her hands full of letters. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
