Eccentric American novelist (1863–1945). Her most acclaimed novel, The Quick or the Dead?, paved the way for multiple books, poems, and eventually Broadway plays. Troubetzkoy was the goddaughter of Robert E. Lee, granddaughter of William Cabell Rives, and took John Armstrong Chanler, heir to the Astor fortune, as her first husband. AQS on an off-white 4.5 x 3.5 card. Troubetzkoy pens an excerpt from ‘Lines from a Sound, in full: “Sleep on dead self in placed changelessness; Who knows how soon this other self will die? Or if her grave will be as still a one? The coming years have power to curse and bless, Not love, however much we strive and cry, Joy holds us back until grief’s work is done,” signed at the conclusion, “Amelie Rives.” In fine condition, with some light toning.
