What is The Story of a Country Town about?

E. W. Howe’s novel is a bitter analysis of the American small town, its interpretation anticipating Main Street, its grotesque characters foreshadowing Winesburg, Ohio. The story combines psychological insights with social analysis; at a time when local fiction was often merely picturesque, Howe’s trenchant realism won the vigorous endorsement of both Twain and Howells.
