Painted Fires
Painted Fires, first published in 1925, narrates the trials and tribulations of Helmi Milander, a Finnish immigrant, during the years approaching the First World War. The novel serves as a vehicle for McClungas social activism, especially in terms of temperance, woman suffrage, and immigration policies that favour cultural assimilation. In her afterword, Cecily Devereux situates Painted Fires in the context of McClungas feminist fiction and her interest in contemporary questions of immigration and anaturalization.a She also considers how McClungas representation of Helmi Milanderas story draws on popular culture narratives.1910.
