series of realistic sketches of the upper circles of Swedish society, followed, by three other collections with the same title. Her earliest plays, Skddespelerskan (" The Actress," 1873), and its successors, were produced anonymously in Stockholm, but in 1883 her reputation was established by the success of Sanna Kvinnor (" True Women "), and En Raddande engel (" An Angel
of Deliverance "): Sanna Kvinnor is directed against false femininity, and was well received in Germany as well as in Sweden. Anne Leffler had married in '872 G. Edgren, but about 1884 she was separated from her husband, who did not share her advanced views. She spent some time in England, and in 1885 produced her Hur man gor godt (" How men do good "), followed in 1888 by Kampen for lyckan (" The Struggle for Happiness "), in which she had the help of Sophie Kovalevsky. Another volume of the Ur L fvei series appeared in 1889; and Familjelycka (" Domestic Happiness," 1891) was produced in the year after her second marriage
