The White Linen Nurse was so tired that her noble expression ached. Incidentally her head ached and her shoulders ached and her lungs ached and the ankle-bones of both feet ached quite excruciatingly. But nothing of her felt permanently incapaci-tate

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Eleanor Hallowell Abbott was an American writer born on September 22, 1872, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Known for her engaging storytelling and distinctive style, she was a frequent contributor to The Ladies' Home Journal and gained recognition for her novels, short stories, and essays. Abbott was educated at the prestigious Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, which helped shape her literary career. In 1908, she married Fordyce Coburn, with whom she shared a life in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where she passed away on June 4, 1958, at the age of 85. Throughout her life, Abbott explored themes of love, personal growth, and the complexities of the human condition in her writing. Her work was appreciated for its emotional depth and insightful portrayal of characters, especially women navigating societal expectations. Abbott's father, Edward Abbott, was an important influence in her life, and she built a reputation for her strong voice in both fiction and non-fiction. Though not as widely known today, her contributions to early 20th-century American literature remain significant in capturing the sensibilities of her time.
