Myra Meets His Family is a short story written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The story revolves around a young woman named Myra who is invited to meet her boyfriend's family for the first time. Myra is nervous about the meeting as she comes from a lower social class than her boyfriend's family. The story explores the class differences between the two families and how Myra tries to fit in with her boyfriend's family. The story also touches upon themes of love, social status, and the pressure to conform to societal norms. Fitzgerald's writing style is engaging and descriptive, and he captures the nuances of the characters' emotions and thoughts effectively. Overall, Myra Meets His Family is a poignant and insightful story that offers a glimpse into the complexities of social dynamics and relationships.She had lain there an hour perhaps when she was startled from a slow reverie by a sharp cry which seemed to proceed from the adjoining room. She sat up in bed and listened, and in a minute it was repeated. It sounded exactly like the plaint of a weary child stopped summarily by the placing of a hand over its mouth. In the dark silence her bewilderment shaded gradually off into uneasiness. She waited for the cry to recur, but straining her ears she heard only the intense crowded stillness of three o'clock. She wondered where Knowleton slept, remembered that his bedroom was over in the other wing just beyond his mother's.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
