Description
Consists of three character studies of women; "The Good Anna" -- a kind but domineering German servingwoman; "Melanctha" -- an uneducated but sensitive black girl; "The Gentle Lena" -- a pathetically feebleminded young German maid. The three stories are independent of each other, but all are set in Bridgepoint, a fictional town based on Baltimore, MD.
