share link Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings and the Reckoning of Ideology Southern Quarterly Fall 2005 by Graham-Bertolini, Alison In the autobiographical Cross Creek, published in 1942, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings devotes a chapter of the work to her encounter with the proud and graceful young white woman who would later become the inspiration for Florry in "Jacob's Ladder" (68). This chapter, "Antses in Tim's Breakfast," details one episode in the life of "Florry," who, with her husband and small baby, lived for a brief time in a rundown tenant house on Rawlings' orange grove in Cross Creek, Florida. In this chapter, Rawlings admits to a certain "callousness" on her part in her brief dealings with the couple, which she came to regret. As a result, thoughts of the young woman "tormented" Rawlings for years to come, and she states at the chapter's conclusion, "the only way I could shake free of her was to write of her" (68). | |
