520 _a"The Women Who Make Our Novels" by Grant M. Overton is a collection of literary sketches written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on prominent American women novelists, discussing their contributions to literature and delving into their personal stories, creative methods, and influences. Overton aims to present a variety of perspectives on these writers, highlighting their artistic achievements and societal impact during a time where female voices in literature were gaining increasing recognition. At the start of the book, the author sets the stage for this exploration by outlining his intentions and qualifications for writing about women novelists, acknowledging his background as a literary reporter instead of a novelist himself. He establishes a framework that emphasizes the intersection of these women's lives with their literary works. Overton introduces the first subject, Edith Wharton, illustrating her unique position in the literary world and noting her aloneness despite her artistic success. This opening portion effectively immerses the reader in the themes of recognition and the evolution of women's roles in the literary landscape, promising a detailed examination of each author's contributions in the ensuing chapters.
