Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Irrational Knot: Being the Second Novel of His Nonage This novel was written in the year 1880, only a few years after I had exported myself from Dublin to London in a condition of extreme rawness and inexperience concerning the specifically English side of the life with which the book pretends to deal. Everybody wrote novels then. It was my second attempt; and it shared the fate of my first. That is to say, nobody would publish it, though I tried all the London publishers and some American ones. And I should not greatly blame them if I could feel sure that it was the book´s faults and not its qualities that repelled them. I have narrated elsewhere how in the course of time the rejected MS. became Mrs. Annie Besant´s excuse for lending me her ever helping hand by publishing it as a serial in a little propagandist magazine of hers. That was how it got loose beyond all possibility of recapture. It is out of my power now to stand between it and the American public: all I can do is to rescue it from unauthorized mutilations and make the best of a jejune job. At present, of course, I am not the author of The Irrational Knot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
