Solid Tarkington Romance,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Flirt (The Works of Booth Tarkington) (Library Binding)
A charming tale about a young adult female, Cora, who is the first choice of all the men in the small midwestern town. She knows this and is a like a kid in a candy store -- constantly drooling over one man and then running to another when the excitement wears off.One day, however, she meets her match when the male version of herself drops into town. However this man isn't what he appears to be and is the stronger of the players and easily falls prey to him. This book was really a engrossing. Cora's brother had touches of Penrod in him and he had some good gags ( this book was written before Penrod ). In addition, this book describes the social / dating scene / morales of the early 1900's, which can best be described as quaint. I found the narratives and characterizations really compelling and interesting. Easily could have been made into an AMC channel movie. |
