1 Too Late : Or, Ashes of Roses Pearl Roberts Powell , 1892 single work short story romance
— Appears in: The Australian Journal , May vol. 27 no. 324 1892; (p. 504-508) Romance and disillusion. A young girl and a 30 year old artist fall in love one summer, but he leaves her to retrun to the city, his career and his rich fiancee. Seven years later, a successful widower, he returns to claim her but her love has died and she is a successful author who offers him only her friendship. Bitter-sweet touches but conventional language diminishes impact. (PB)
