Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Autobiography of a Working Woman "A Delheid Popp" is a name that has a far away sound, and a superficial reading of this "Autobiography of a Working Woman" may confirm the sense of remoteness. Vienna is far away from America. The conditions of a working woman there are necessarily somewhat different from those of a working woman in New York or Chicago. The conditions of the latter may be somewhat less dismal, but the differences are superficial, the similarities are profound. We rejoice in the appearance of an American edition of this marvelous autobiography, which, judged from a literary standpoint, has the freshness, power, and originality that characterize genius. The very simplicity, directness, frankness, and insight, prove the unconscious, and on that account unpretentious, power of this unsophisticated woman, which broke through her illiteracy and thwarting obstacles by the power of suffering and disinterested service. Here is the story of a "working woman" who has felt the bitterness of hard, unrelenting toil, and out of the agony of such a life has been brought into sympathy with the Gospel side of co-operation.
