This article presents information about the books "These Are Our Lives," "Selected Poems," by Sister M. Madeleva and "The Antigone of Sophocles: An English Version," by Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald. "These Are Our Lives" is a collection of thirty-five short, informal autobiographical sketches of people in North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia, collected by workers on the WPA Writers' Project and reported as early as possible in the words of the people themselves. The subjects include farm owners, tenant farmers, landlords, merchants, mill and factory workers, specialists from bootblack to dentist and folk on relief. The book by Sister Madeleva establishes her as one of the most graceful minor figures.
