Published in 1879, the stories collected in Old Friends and New are written with Jewett’s keen insight and gentle humor, and offer a vivid display of her genius as a writer. Her poignant depictions of elderly women as seen through the eyes of the young, is a theme that runs prominently through the collection. Included are “A Late Supper, ” “A Sorrowful Guest, ” and “A Bit of Shore Life.”
