Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Landlord of the Sun, Vol. 1: A Novel In all novels in which the interest mainly depends on the adventures of the hero, the opening chapters are generally not only the most difficult for the author to write, but also the most uninteresting of the whole. To allow the reader to form a just idea of the hero´s character, it is necessary to give at least some few details of his childhood; for as "the boy is father to the man," the peculiarities and idiosyncracies of his early life will more or less be traceable through his career when grown up to man´s estate. Now, to interest the novel-reader with the adventures of boyhood is in itself a work of so much difficulty that few ever succeed in it, and in the present instance the task is more difficult than usual.
