The collection seamlessly blends a variety of literary styles, from gothic elements and realism to early feminist narratives, presenting readers with stories that challenge and delight.

Contributors Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman and Florence Morse Kingsley bring their formidable talents and historical significance to this anthology, underlining their roles as pioneering voices in American literature.

An Alabaster Box invites readers to immerse themselves in a versatile collection that spans genre and tone, offering indispensable insights into the human condition through the lens of its era. This anthology is not merely a collection of stories, but a riveting confluence of views that encourages readers to engage with historical contexts, literary movements, and diverse experiences.
