Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Naomi Norsworthy How shall one tell the life-story of another? The attempt is foredoomed to failure. Even if it were possible to trace mechanically every action to its source, it would take a lifetime to tell the story. The author of this book is fortunate, it seems to me, in that she has not sought to write a detailed biography or make a sketch or give a portrait of Naomi Norsworthy. It is rather a tribute of a friend to a friend, with just enough detail to show why that friendship was close and reciprocal. The most striking characteristic of Miss Norsworthy was her genius for friendship. No student of hers, no casual acquaintance even, but felt drawn to her as if by a magnet. Her attraction was enhanced by rare intellectual powers and by her gift of logical exposition. But it was not her intellect that brought her friends; it was a boundless sympathy welling up from a heart genuinely interested in others welfare. She met every advance more than halfway, and she gave unstintingly of herself to all who sought her aid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
