Merely Mary Ann by Israel Zangwill, Fiction, Classics, Historical, Romance, Literary

She looked half drowsed. Her cap was off, her hair tangled loosely over her forehead. In her disarray she looked prettier than he had ever remembered her. There was something provoking about the large dreamy eyes, the red lips that parted at the unexpected sight of him.-- Merely Mary AnnIsrael Zangwill's delightful novel became a play -- and later in the twentieth century, a movie. Even now the play is performed. Zangwill is best remembered for plays like The Melting Pot and as a famous Jewish author. Merely Mary Ann is a delightful and warm testimony to the power -- and music -- of the human heart.
