When Mary Ladd Gavell died in 1967, at the age of forty-seven, she had never been published. But her story The Rotifer was fortuitously discovered by John Updike, who called it a gem and included it in The Best American Short Stories of the Century. With the publication of I Cannot Tell a Lie, Exactly, Mary Ladd Gavell takes her rightful place among the best writers of her-and our-time.
