- Note Relating to Cather
- In an October 2 [1931] letter to Dorothy Canfield Fisher, Cather writes, "What you say about Ruth Suckow interests me. I didn't like her early things at all, and I've not read anything of hers for five or six. To be frank, my dear, about her early things there was a creepy, cold nastiness that made my gorge rise. I don't mind the coarseness that comes from over-heat, young energy. But I do hate the other kind like the devil. . . I'll read her new book at your suggestion." Suckow's "new book" was Children and Older People. It was published by Knopf.
