Summary "McClure's Magazine, Vol. 1, No. 1" by Various is a periodical publication featuring a collection of essays, interviews, and literary works written during the late 19th century. This inaugural issue offers a rich tapestry of topics that delve into literary biographies, creative fiction, animal trade, personal reflections, and contemporary issues addressed by renowned figures of the time. The blend of different genres and styles provides an insightful glimpse into the cultural and social atmosphere of the era. At the start of this magazine, we encounter a dialogue between the author Hjalmar Hjorth Boyesen and the prominent writer William Dean Howells, where they reflect on Howells's life, literary journeys, and the influences that shaped his writing. Boyesen struggles with the idea of framing Howells as a "hero" in his biography, leading to a candid exploration of their friendship and mutual respect. This sets the tone for the magazine, gracefully transitioning to various pieces, including a touching fictional narrative about a young girl and her forbidden love, showcasing a diverse representation of both personal and artistic growth during this vibrant literary period.
