"Phoebe" is the name Eunice Huberta Tobie gave herself in this 1938 novel about her early life. Phoebe, who must feel her way, test her footing, and endlessly search her heart, is the story's main character. Unlike her sister Helen, who took what she wanted in life, Phoebe was tortured by attacks of conscience, indecision, and feelings of futility. She recognized these negations of character and allowed them to harass her, but she accepted them, too, as part of herself and would not have traded lives with anyone.
