THE HEART LINE
Written by Gelett Burgess
Published a year after the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, THE HEART LINE is a huge, panoramic view of the city entering the 20th century. The story follows a mentalist and his clients -- the remarkable citizens of a city too sophisticated for its time. Richard Lupoff, who provides an introduction, compares THE HEART LINE to Edith Wharton's THE HOUSE OF MIRTH as similar in theme and style. 354 pages. Free Shipping to the US; actual cost to elsewhere
