Dear Collector letter laid in, and states: In her new book, Nine Women, nine exquisitely crafted stories introduce us to characters of very different backgrounds and temperaments. These are tales of love, of family relationships, of the struggle for dignity, both in the midst of poverty and among the country-club set. Ms. Grau expresses her large themes through everyday occurrences in the livers of women. The short stories are titled: The Beginning, Hunter, Letting Go, Widow's Walk, Housekeeper, Ending, Summer Shore, Home, and Flight. Shirley Ann Grau (July 8, 1929 – August 3, 2020) was an American writer. Born in New Orleans, she lived part of her childhood in Montgomery, Alabama. Her novels are set primarily in the Deep South and explore issues of race and gender. In 1965 she won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature for her novel The Keepers of the House, set in a fictional Alabama town. Grau's writing explores issues of death, destruction, abortion, and miscegenation, frequently set in historical Alabama[9] or Louisiana. Although she did not restrict her writing to the Deep South or to stories about women, she is recognized as an important writer in the fields of women's studies, feminist literature, and Southern literature.
