Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christian Ordinances and Social Progress: Being the William Belden Noble Lectures for 1900 A sequel to Mrs. Ward´s [Elizabeth Stuart Phelps´s] famous stories, "An Old Maid´s Paradise" and "Burglar in Paradise." It is an open secret that the name of Elizabeth Stuart Phelps´s seaside cottage is "Paradise," and that Herbert D. Ward is the name of the burglar who invaded it. His humor is broadly comic and his scenes are vigorously dramatic. - The Interior, Chicago. Though differing in subject there is one element common to them all - a sympathy with humanity, a feeling of common brotherhood with the poor, the weak, and the suffering; and it is this quality which gives them a value apart from their purely literary merit. They are stories that can be read and re-read without loss of interest. - Boston Transcript. A powerful novel, marked by that weight of purpose and that dignity of manner which carry influence and impress the reader with a sense of profound experience. - The Independent. The story of the raising of Lazarus, amplified into a romantic love-story. So far from being dull or didactic, the story has a simple, forthright dramatic interest such as is seldom attained except in purely imaginative fiction. - The Scotsman, Edinburgh.
