...creditor that he challenges her to a duel, but they suffer the fate of operatic lightning-love and fall into each other's arms. The work is laced with musical and verbal wit. Widow Popova's complaints about her dead husband ("What could a poor, weak woman do / But humor his caprices,/ When acts more suited to a zoo / Took place with neighbors' nieces?") are set to an oompah rhythm and sardonic melody. Though The Bear is no immortal work from the Olympian heights of human creativity, it is blessed with fine craftsmanship and expert musicianship...

In conventional pill form, the drug is effective for short terms (women take the pills for 20 days, then stop to permit menstruation).

Lawrence and the countless exegeses, an early short story, The Woman Who Rode Away, emerges fresh and startling in a 1925 issue of the Dial. The proper American woman living in Mexico with a dreary husband goes off to the hills in search of fulfillment. Instead, she is imprisoned by Indians of such "terrible, glittering purity" that they ignore her womanhood and sacrifice her to their gods...
