Using the restored texts of the Cambridge edition, this volume includes further reading, a new chronology and notes by Paul Poplawski."--BOOK JACKET. In 'The Woman Who Rode Away' a woman's religious quest in Mexico brings great danger - and astonishing self-discovery, while 'The Princess' portrays the intimacy between an aloof woman and her male guide as she ventures into the wilderness of New Mexico in search of new experiences.". "These three works, all written in 1924, explore profound psychological voyages of liberation.
