THE LITTLE LADY OF THE BIG HOUSE
1916. New York: The Macmillan Company 1916. 6 pp undated ads. Original blue cloth pictorially decorated in black white and orange.<br/> <br/> First Edition of this tale about a love triangle on a large ranch. Though not published until the year of Jack's death he had written this during his bad year of 1913. He spent much of that year visiting a dentist finally having all of his upper teeth pulled to halt the pyorrhea raging in his gums; at about the same time his Wolf House burned down two weeks before its completion; and his kidney problems continued to worsen exacerbated by his drinking and his insistence upon eating raw fish and duck -- "Jack persisted in gobbling underdone flesh as if he were a wolf." The novel was meant to exalt the splendor of Wolf House and scientific farming and sex. "It is all sex from start to finish --" he wrote to the editor of Cosmopolitan "in which no sexual adventure is actually achieved or comes within a million miles of being achieved and in which nevertheless is all the guts of sex coupled with strength.". As in THE SEA-WOLF Jack split his own role between the two male protagonists the ranch owner Dick Forrest and the romantic adventurer Evan Graham. Forrest is Jack's ideal of the rich commercial rancher of the future the owner of 250000 acres worked on strict scientific principles. Evan Graham is another version of Dick Forrest but he has chosen to remain a writer and a wanderer -- the escapist ideal of Jack himself. Both men. compete for the love of Dick's wife Paula -- a vision of Charmian as the elegant hostess the athletic horsewoman and the Eternal Kid of Jack's fantasies. She kills herself to solve her dilemma the day before Dick has decided to do the same thing. Sinclair This is a bright near-fine copy a touch of rubbing at the extremities very light damage to the paste-downs. Sisson & Martens p. 88; Blanck 11966. unknown
