She Also Provides A Spiritual Sustenance That He Has Never Found With Any Other Woman. Together They Engage In Lively Conversations About His Political Convictions And Her Beliefs And Values. Inspired, Arliss Returns To New York Where He Delivers Eloquent Speeches To An Overwhelmingly Supportive Constituency.Placing Cactus Thorn In Biographical, Feminist, And Literary Perspective, Melody Graulich'S Commentary Discusses How Austins Themes Are Timeless In Setting And Moral Tone.
