Merrittsville

Title

Merrittsville

Description

In the short story “Merritsville,” Mary Redmund’s views are pooh-poohed by her painter-professor husband and his good friend, the Associate Professor of English George Sedwick who criticizes “most women” for lack of a sense of the Ideal. Mary seeks the atypical on her grand tour of the U.S., and finds it in Merritsville and its founder, Judge Merritt and his painter wife.
