Arlo Bates was born on 16 December 1850 in East Machias, Maine. A graduate of Bowdoin College in 1876, he became a notable American author, educator, and newspaperman. In 1880, Bates took on the role of editor for the Boston Sunday Courier, a position he held for over a decade until 1893. Following his work in journalism, he transitioned into academia, becoming a professor of English at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he significantly influenced literary education. His contributions to literature spanned fiction, poetry, and criticism. Bates was known for his thoughtful prose and poetic sensibilities, with works such as The Pagans, The Philistines, and Love in a Cloud reflecting his interest in cultural and philosophical questions. He also produced several poetry collections, including Berries of the Brier and Sonnets in Shadow, and authored critical essays like Talks on Writing English. In 1900, he was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Bates passed away on 25 August 1918 in Boston, leaving behind a legacy as both a literary figure and educator.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Patty's perversities follows the story of a young woman whose spirited and imaginative nature sets her apart in her small-town world. The novel delves into her journey through the intricacies of growing up, love, and family life. Her days are filled with cheerful musings about social gatherings and the attentions of her admirers, yet beneath the surface lies her quiet struggle with the conventions that seek to define her role. The story unfolds through her lively interactions with friends and family, whose eccentricities mirror the charm and contradictions of the society they inhabit. As she navigates moments of rivalry, affection, and self-reflection, the narrative paints a portrait of youthful energy balanced with a yearning for personal autonomy. Blending subtle humor with emotional insight, the book highlights the challenges of maintaining individuality within a framework of social conformity. It becomes an engaging exploration of self-assertion, identity, and the bittersweet transitions that accompany youth and maturity. This item is printed on demand.
