'Emboldened, doubtless, by the success of "Dodo," the author of "Keynotes" offers us a set of stories written with the least amount of literary skill and in the worst literary taste. We have refrained from quotation, for fear of giving to this book an importance which it does not merit.'—Pall Mall Gazette.
'The sirens sing in it from the first page to the last. It may, perhaps, shock you with disregard of conventionality and reticencies, but you will all the same have to admit its fascination. There can be no doubt that in Mr. George Egerton his publishers have discovered a story-teller of genius.'—Star.
'This is a collection of eight of the prettiest short stories that have appeared for many a day. They turn for the most part on feminine traits of character; in fact, the book is a little psychological study of woman under various circumstances. The characters are so admirably drawn, and the scenes and landscapes are described with so much and so rare vividness, t6hat one cannot help being almost spell-bound by their perusal.'—St. James's Gazette.
'A rich, passionate temperament vibrates through every line. . . . We have met nothing so lovely in its tenderness since Mr. Kipling's "Without Benefit of Clergy."'—Daily Chronicle.
'For any one who cares more for truth than for orthodox mummery, and for the real flood of the human heart than for the tepid negus which stirs the veins of respectability, this little book deserves a hearty welcome.'—Sketch.
'Singularly artistic in its brilliant suggestiveness.'—Daily News.
'This is a book which is a portentous sign of our times. The wildness, the fierceness, the animality that underlie the soft, smooth surface of woman's pretty and subdued face—this is the theme to which she again and again recurs.'—T. P. in Weekly Sun.
'To credit a new writer with the possession of genius is a serious matter, but it is nevertheless a verdict which Mr. George Egerton can hardly avoid at the hands of those who read his delightful sketches.'—Liverpool Post.
'These lovely sketches are informed by such throbbing feeling, such insight into complex woman, that we with all speed and warmth advise those who are in search of splendid literature to procure "Keynotes" without delay.'—Literary World.
'These very clever stories of Mr. Egerton's.'—Black and White.
'The reading of it is an adventure, and, once begun, it is hard to tear yourself from the book till you have devoured every line. There is impulsive life in every word of it. It has passion, ardour, vehement romance. It is full of youth; often enough the revolt and despair of youth.'—Irish Independent.
'Every line of the book gives the impression that here some woman has crystallised her life's drama; has written down her soul upon the page.'—Review of Reviews.
'The work of a woman who has lived every hour of her life, be she young or old. . . . She allows us, like the great artists of old, Shakespeare and Goethe, to draw our own moral from the stories she tells, and it is with no uncertain touch or faltering hand that she pulls aside the curtain of conventional hypocrisy which hundreds of women hang between the world and their own hearts. . . . The insight of the writer into the curious and complicated nature of women is almost miraculous.'—Lady's Pictorial.
'She is a writer with a profound understanding of the human heart. She understands men; and, more than this, she understands women. . . . For those who weary of the conventional fiction, and who long for something out of the ordinary run of things, these are tales that carry the zest of living.'—Bostom Beacon.
'It is not a book for babes and sucklings, since it cuts deep into rather dangerous soil; but it is refined and skilful . . . strikes a very true and touching note of pathos.'—Westminster Gazette.
'The author of these able word sketches is manifestly a close observer of Nature's moods, and one, moreover, who carefully takes stock of the up-to-date thoughts that shake mankind.'—Daily Telegraph.
'Not since the "Story of an African Farm" was written by any woman delivered herself of so strong, so forcible a book.'—Queen.
'Powerful pictures of human beings living to—day, full of burning pain, and thought, and passion.'—Bookman.
'A work of genius. There is upon the whole thing a stamp of downright inevitableness as of things which must be written, and written exactly in that way.'—Speaker.
'"Keynotes" is a singularly clever book.'—Truth.
'We welcome the light and merry pen of Miss Farr as one of the deftest that has been wielded in the style of to-day. She has written the cleverest and the most cynical sensation story of the season.'—Liverpool Daily Post.
'Slight as it is, the story is, in its way, strong.'—Literary World.
'Full of bright paradox, and paradox which is no mere topsy-turvy play upon words, but the product of serious thinking upon life. One of the cleverest of recent novels.'—Star.
'It is full of epigrammatic effects, and it has a certain thread of pathos calculated to win our sympathy.'—Queen.
'The story is subtle and psychological after the fashion of modern psychology; it is undeniably clever and smartly written.'—Gentlewoman.
'No one can deny its freshness and wit. Indeed there are things in it here and there which John Oliver Hobbes herself might have signed without loss of reputation.'—Woman.
'There is a lurid power in the very unreality of the story. One does not quite understand how Lady Geraldine worked herself up to shooting her lover, but when she has done it, the description of what passes through her mind is magnificent.'—Athenæum.
'Written by an obviously clever woman.'—Black and White.
'Miss Farr has talent. "The Dancing Faun" contains writing that is distinctively good. Doubtless it is only a prelude to something much stronger.'—Academy.
'As a work of art the book has the merit of brevity and smart writing; while the dénouement is skilfully prepared, and comes as a surprise. If the book had been intended as a satire on the "new woman" sort of literature, it would have been most brilliant; but assuming it to be written in earnest, we can heartily praise the form of its construction without agreeing with the sentiments expressed.'—St. James's Gazette.
'Shows considerable power and aptitude.'—Saturday Review.
POOR FOLK. Translated from the Russian of F EDOR DOSTOIEVSKY. By LENA MILMAN. With an Introduction by GEORGE MOORE, and a Title-page and Cover Design by AUBREY BEARDSLEY. Crown 8vo, 3s. 6d. net.
' The book is cleverly translated. " Poor Folk " gains in reality and pathos by the very means that In less skilful hands would be tedious and commonp ace.'-—Sfcctator.
'A charming story of the love of a Charles Lamb kind of old bachelor for a young work-girl. Full of quiet humour and still more full of the lacbym nmmJ—Star.
'Scenes of poignant realism, described with so admirable a blending of humour and pathos that they haunt the memory.'—Daily Nms.
'No one will read it attentively without feeling both its power and its pathos.'—Scatmau.
'The book is one of great pathos and absorbing interest. Miss Milman given us an admirable version of it which will commend imlf to every one who cares for good literature.'—Gla:ng Herald.
'These things seem small, but in the hands of Dostoievsky they make a work of genius.'—Black and White.
'One of the most pathetic things in all literature, heartrending just because its tragedy is so repressed.'—Bookmau.
'As to novels, the very finest I have read of late or for long is " Poor Folk," by Fedor Dostoievsky, translated by Miss Lena Milman.'— Truth.
'A book to be read for the merits of its execution. The translator by the way has turned it into excellent English.'—Pall Mall Gazette.
' The narrative vibrates with feeliug, and these few unstudied letters convey to us a cry from the depths of a famished human soul. As faras we can judge, the English rendering, though simple, retains that ring of emotion which must distinguish the original.'—W:stmimt¢r Katie-w.
'One of the most striking studies in plain and simple realism which was ever writtenJ—Daily Telegrafill.
' " Poor Folk" is certainly a vivid and pathetic story.'—Glab¢.
P'A triumph of realistic art—a masterpieCe of a great writer.'—Morning art.
'Dostoievsky's novel has met with that rare advantage, 2 really good translator.'—-Quent.
' This admirable translation of a great author.'—Livnfool Mercury.
' " Poor Folk" Englished does not read like a translation—indubitably a masterpieceJ—Litermy World.
'Told with a gradually deepening intensity and force, a pathetic truthfulness which lives in the memory.'—Lud: Mercury.
'What Charles Dickens in his attpts to reproduce the seutiment and pathos of the humble deceived himself and others into thinking that he did, that F edor Dostoievsky actually does.'—Manclu:t¢r Guardian.
' It is a story that leaves the reader almost stunned. Miss Milman's translation is admirable.'—Gentlewoman.
'The translation ap to be well done so far as we have compared it with the original.'— . R. MORFILL in The Academy.
' A most impressive and characteristic imen of Russian fiction. Those to whom Russian is a sealed book will duly grateful to the translator (who has acquitted herself excellently), to Mr. Moore, and to the publisher for this presentment of Dostoievsky's remarkable novel.'—Times.
