Quando suo padre, il giudice McKelva, le comunica di dover subire un'operazione a un occhio, Laurel non esita a lasciare la sua casa di Chicago e andare a New Orleans per prendersene cura, anche se dovrà avere a che fare con la nuova moglie del giudice, Fay: una donna più giovane di lei, con un carattere duro e scostante, che secondo molti si è sposata solo per interesse. L’intervento sembra riuscito, ma il giudice – l’ottimista del titolo – stenta a guarire, e sprofonda in uno stato di prostrazione a cui seguirà una morte inaspettata. Alle due donne non resta che andare in Mississippi per seppellirlo nel cimitero di famiglia: Laurel avrà così l’occasione per fare i conti con la sua comunità di origine – lasciata forse troppo presto in cerca di una felicità e una realizzazione che hanno faticato ad arrivare – ma anche con Fay e il suo passato, e infine con un mondo che, nella sua meravigliosa testardaggine, si rifiuta di rinunciare alle proprie tradizioni. Maestra indiscussa del racconto e del romanzo di famiglia, Eudora Welty raggiunge con La figlia dell’ottimista – Premio Pulitzer per la narrativa nel 1973 – quella che rimane forse la vetta più alta della sua arte, creando, con Laurel e Fay, due tra i ritratti femminili più complessi e affascinanti che la letteratura americana abbia mai prodotto.

Galardonada con el prestigioso Premio Pulitzer, La hija del optimista es, sin duda, la obra maestra de Eudora Welty. En la tradición de la más brillante novela sureña de la que forman parte William Faulkner, Truman Capote, Robert Penn Warren y Carson McCullers , narra la historia de Laurel McKelva, una mujer de mediana edad que viaja a Nueva Orleans para hacerse cargo de su padre, un juez retirado que ha de someterse a una operación quirúrgica. El juez no logra recuperarse, y muere lentamente. Será entonces cuando Laurel emprenda un largo viaje de regreso a su hogar familiar en Mount Salus, Mississippi, llevando consigo el cuerpo de su padre, y siempre vigilada por la segunda esposa de éste, Fay, una mujer orgullosa y más joven que Laurel. En la enorme casa, rodeada de sus antiguos conocidos y de las paredes que la vieron crecer, Laurel ha de enfrentarse a los fantasmas de su juventud y a las deudas del pasado.

Judge McKelva ist tot, der gütigste und gerechteste Richter von ganz Mississippi. Er, der sich immer für einen Optimisten gehalten hatte, dessen Einstellung zum Leben vom Leben selbst durchaus bestätigt worden war, stirbt nach einer Augenoperation. Zu seinem Begräbnis kommen die angesehenen Familien der Kleinstadt zusammen und reden über Bridge, Rosen und Räucherschinken. Zwei Frauen nehmen die Kondolenzen entgegen: Fay, die junge Witwe, eine laute, egoistische Texanerin, die mit ihrer Sippschaft zu all der stillen Vornehmheit ringsum einen störenden, aber ungemein lebhaften Kontrast bildet. Und Laurel, die Tochter des Richters aus seiner ersten Ehe, die älter als ihre Stiefmutter ist und aus dem fernen, kalten Chicago herbeigereist ist. Laurel ist scheinbar ganz heimisch in dieser Welt, sie saugt sich noch einmal ganz voll mit Erinnerungen an ihre Kindheit und ihre Eltern. Und plötzlich wird ihr klar, daß sie unangenehme Vorfälle und schmerzliche Wahrheiten nicht mehr so einfach verdrängen kann.
