This book contains two stories: 'A Counterfeit Resentment' and 'The Parlour Car'. The first story is a play in the comedy genre that centers on an accidental encounter between Constance, a young woman and a man that she mistook for her past paramour, Bartlett. The second story is a tale about a meeting between two strangers in a passenger train; a woman named Miss Galbraith and a man named Mr. Richards. Both stories were written by William Dean Howells, best remembered today for once serving as the editor of The Atlantic Monthly, as well as for his own prolific writings, including the short story 'Christmas Every Day' and the novels 'The Rise of Silas Lapham' and 'A Traveler from Altruria'.
