The Golden Apples is a Eudora Welty's meditative story cycle set in fictional Morgana, Mississippi, following a generation of small town neighbors from cradle to grave. Stories include "Moon Lake," "The Wanderers," and "June Recital": "The music came with greater volume -- with fewer halts -- and Jinny Love tiptoed forward and began turning the music. Miss Eckhart did not even see her -- her arm struck the child, making a run. Coming from Miss Eckhart, the music made all the pupils uneasy, almost alarmed; something had burst out, unwanted, exciting, from the wrong person's life. . . . The little girls, all stationed about the studio with the rushing rain outside, looked at one another, the three quite suddenly on some equal footing. They were all wondering -- thinking -- perhaps about escape."First edition of Eudora Welty's meditative story cycle set in fictional Morgana, Mississippi, following a generation of small town neighbors from cradle to grave.
