Sinopsis

In "A Round Dozen," Susan Coolidge presents a charming collection of twelve interconnected stories that capture the essence of childhood and the complexities of growing up. Written with a delicate hand, Coolidge's style combines whimsy and introspection, encapsulating the adventurous spirit of youth while exploring themes of friendship, family, and self-discovery. Each tale is intricately crafted, exhibiting a rich use of language that invites readers into a world filled with imagination and moral lessons, all while speaking to the Victorian societal context in which she wrote, reflecting both the innocence and challenges faced by young people of her time. Susan Coolidge, the pen name of Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, was deeply influenced by her experiences as a child and the vibrant literary landscape of the late 19th century. Growing up in a literate household amidst a backdrop of cultural change, her passion for storytelling was nurtured early on. This collection reflects her nuanced understanding of youth, drawn from her own observances of children'Äôs interactions and the societal expectations that color their experiences, ultimately leading her to create relatable and poignant narratives. Readers are invited into the enchanting world of "A Round Dozen," where the vivid tales resonate with both nostalgia and exploration. This collection is a delightful dive into childhood's essence, making it a perfect read for those who cherish stories that invoke warmth and introspection, and for anyone interested in the rich tapestry of Victorian literature.
