About this listen
On this episode of Narrated Archives is the story, The Scarlet Woman, by Louis Bromfield, which was published in McClure's magazine in January of 1927 and was awarded one of the prizes for best stories for October 1926 to September 27 by the O. Henry Memorial Prize Committee.
The Scarlet Woman centers on Vergie Winters, a simple milliner in a conventional American town, who falls in love with a respected, up and coming handsome lawyer who later becomes a Senator.
The story is praised for its intense focus on Vergie's struggle against rigid social conventions, highlighting the hypocrisy of small-town values through stark realism and emotional depth.
