You could not have lived a week in Winnebago without being aware of Mrs. Brandeis. In a town of ten thousand, where every one was a personality, from Hen Cody, the drayman, in blue overalls (magically transformed on Sunday mornings into a suave black-broadcloth usher at the Congregational Church), to A. J. Dawes, who owned the waterworks before the city bought it. Mrs. Brandeis was a super-personality. Winnebago did not know it. Winnebago, buying its dolls, and china, and Battenberg braid and tinware and toys of Mrs. Brandeis, of Brandeis' Bazaar, realized vaguely that here was some one different. When you entered the long, cool, narrow store on Elm Street, Mrs. Brandeis herself came forward to serve you, unless she already was busy with two customers. There were two clerks--three, if you count Aloysius, the boy--but to Mrs. Brandeis belonged the privilege of docketing you first. If you happened in during a moment of business lull, you were likely to find her reading in the left-hand corner at the front of the store, near the shelf where were ranged the dolls' heads, the pens, the pencils, and school supplies

Heralded by one reviewer as the most serious, extended and dignified of [Edna] Ferber's books, Fanny Herself is the intensely personal chronicle of a young girl growing up Jewish in a small midwestern town. Packed with the warmth and the wry, sidelong wit that made Ferber one of the best-loved writers of her time, the novel charts Fanny's emotional growth through her relationship with her mother, the shrewd, sympathetic Molly Brandeis. You could not have lived a week in Winnebago without being aware of Mrs. Brandeis, Ferber begins, and likewise the story of Fanny Brandeis is inextricable from that of her vigorous, enterprising mother. Molly Brandeis is the owner and operator of Brandeis' Bazaar, a modest general store left to her by her idealistic, commercially inept late husband.

From the witty Algonquin Round Table writer, Edna Feber, comes this semi-autobiographical coming-of-age novel. Fanny Herself follows the trials of a young Jewish woman as she finds her feet in early twentieth-century America. In constant self-comparison to her mother, Fanny is trying to find a balance between her artistic aspirations and her dream of being an entrepreneurial businesswoman. She is a sensitive woman who struggles to thrive when her small successes are so heavily overshadowed by her brother’s music career. But Fanny is determined, surrounded by good friends, and has an incredibly strong will to achieve her dreams. First published in 1917, Fanny Herself is surprisingly modern and full of Edna Ferber’s well-known warmth and wit. This early feminist novel is the perfect read for those who enjoyed the Emma McChesney trilogy. Complete with an introductory excerpt by Rogers Dickinson.
