About this Item

Signed by the Author, Eudora Welty on the front-free-endpage without personalization. No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling; Unread. Eudora Welty's Losing Battles (1970) is a celebrated portrayal of Southern life, weaving humor and emotion through the story of a large family gathering in rural Mississippi. Set over a weekend, the novel follows three generations of Granny Vaughn s family celebrating her 90th birthday. Through storytelling and memories of Miss Julia Mortimer, a beloved teacher, the family reunion reveals deeper themes of resilience and unity. Welty s richly crafted characters and comic tone capture the essence of Southern storytelling and the power of family bonds amid life s struggles. Critics praise its vivid, heartfelt exploration of community. Eudora Alice Welty was an American short story writer and novelist who wrote about the American South. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1973. Welty was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, among numerous awards including the Order of the South. She was the first living author to have her works published by the Library of America.
