In addition to her novel-length works, her bibliography includes two collections of short stories. She also ventured into biographical or historical recollection with a volume dedicated to the reminiscences of the Comtesse de Cabarru. Sedgwick passed away on July 19, 1935, leaving behind a diverse body of literary work.
