Abstract

Harry Met Me

The article presents information on the book "Out of That Dream," by Katherine Newborg. This is the story of an American girl-granddaughter, perhaps, to Daisy Miller, during ten days of her twenty-second year. The action begins when she says goodbye to her parents at Cannes and it ends when she meets Harry, the young American she is to marry, at the pier in New York. Thus it is the story of an ocean voyage, of a ship which itself is a universe, and of the things which happen in that universe to Redley Barcien's mind. For it is in the girl's mind that the action takes place; if she is descended from Daisy Miller, she has inherited something also from Daisy's creator, who while he lived was vastly more subtle than his heroines, but who from his grave would seem now to be giving them something of himself.
