Miss Philura's Wedding Gown

by Florence Morse Kingsley

Miss Philura's Wedding Gown is a witty and gently critical novel that follows the story of Miss Philura, a mild-mannered woman who believes that "Ask and you have already received." When she decides to get married, despite the disapproval of her fellow parishioners and neighbors, her conviction is put to the test. The novel explores the complexities of small-town life and relationships, and the stirrings of change at the turn of the century.
