Book Description

Written during one of James Fenimore Cooper's most productive periods, The Autobiography of a Pocket Handkerchief stands as a testament to the inventiveness of this literary icon. This 1843 novella is one of Cooper's most experimental works of fiction, and not just because it is narrated by a clairvoyant French pocket handkerchief. It marks Cooper's first attempt at serial fiction; it is his only novella; and it is one of his earliest uses of first-person narration.
