Youth and the Bright Medusa

Youth and the Bright Medusa, collection of eight short stories about artists and the arts by Willa Cather, published in 1920. Four of the stories were reprinted from Cather's first published collection of fiction, The Troll Garden (1905). The stories include "Flavia and Her Artists," in which an artist exploits a benefactor; "The Garden Lodge," about a woman who suppresses her artistic impulses in exchange for a well-ordered life; "A Wagner Matinée," in which a nephew witnesses his aunt's communion with music; and "Paul's Case," Cather's most famous short story. The remaining four stories-"Coming, Aphrodite!," "The Diamond Mine," "A Gold Slipper," and "Scandal"-all concern opera singers.
