1\ /jTISS EDWARDS is well known
I V/ ) as a poetess of marked ability
from her contributions to
Harper's, Scribner's, and the other lead-
ing magazines. This is her first novel,
and Lorn its high literary quality and
striking originality of conception and treatment it is sure to attract
attention.
Henry Haynie, in the Boston %ne.s, says:
"A wonderfully interesting novel. It is indeed a great novel. It is a thrilling story
of adventure and romance, it is full of virile power, and the style is not only beautiful but
seldom equalled."
Forrest Morgan, in the Hartford Coaranf, says:
" It is not alone a story to take pleasure in reading, and forget time and space,
sorrow and probability in absorption over, it is that and it is more — it is literature.
It has an intellectual dignity and elevation not confined to pungent epigram or clever
analysis, though these are plenty; it is the symmetrical work of an artist. An unfailing '
humor of rare fineness is diffused throughout. With all this, it has a mastery of swift,
thronging, breathless sensation of sudden and surprising development of plot, not
surpassed by Victor Hugo."
The New York TbrA says:
" It is quite as fascinating as unusual."
The Philadelphia Letter says:
" The book is one of extraordinary strength, well worth reading, well worth thinking
about, and well worth arguing about."
