Short Story Classics William Dean Howells Editha by William Dean Howells THE air was thick with the war feeling, like the electricity of a storm which had not yet burst. Editha sat looking out into the hot spring afternoon, with her lips parted, and panting with the intensity of the question whether she could let him go. She had decided that she could not let him stay, when she saw him at the end of the still leafless avenue, making slowly up towards the house, with his head down and his figure relaxed. She ran impatiently out on the veranda, to the edge of the steps, and imperatively demanded greater haste of him with her will before she called aloud to him: "George!" He had quickened his pace in mystical response to her mystical urgence, before he could have heard her; now he looked up and answered, "Well?" "Oh, how united we are!" she exulted, and then she swooped down the steps to him, "What is it?" she cried. "It's war," he said. and he pulled her up to him and kissed her. She kissed him back intensely, but irrelevantly, as to their passion, and uttered from deep in her throat. "How glorious!"

His unromantic love story, Indian Summer (1886), was also highly popular. Howells' critical essays on the works of such realistic European writers as Tolstoy, Zola, and Ibsen helped to mold American taste, and he was a literary mentor of Mark Twain, Hamlin Garland, Thorstein Veblen, and Stephen Crane. He himself became more and more concerned with social conflict and the problem of industrialization. Socialist thought is apparent in his novels

He is the author of The Rise of Silas Lapham (1885), a novel about a self-made Boston manufacturer and his family and the testing of their values. This novel includes such common and popular ingredients of fiction as a rags-to-riches career, romantic love, and financial emergencies; but it avoids Romantic melodrama and suggests the decent good sense of realistic life that American Realism and Howells did much to encourage.
