At long last, the final few pieces of D. K. Broster's unpublished/unavailable writing, three short stories and one non-fiction piece, are up at the website. Here they are:

  • The Daughter of the House, a short story set during the English Civil War. Without giving anything away—I think it's best experienced without spoilers—I would especially recommend this one.
  • Fire of Ashes, another French Royalists story, which I think makes something of an interesting comparison with The Yellow Poppy.
  • Symonds and the Polyanthus, a noteworthy contrast in setting to most of Broster's stories, but one of her weaker ones writing-wise.
  • And The Happy Warrior, her short biography of the Comte de Neuilly, an obscure French Royalist figure.
