Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales From a Mother-of-Pearl Casket A novelist is compelled often to equip a triple-decked vessel in order to carry an ant across water, but a writer of tales has not to think of quantity, since quality only should preoccupy him. After Boccaccio and Marguerite de Navarre, his models, he writes stories that are neat, precise, tender, wherein his mind has not to drag the heavy framework of theses, and whereof the style, every word of which is chased like a jewel, is as far superior to the related thing as the work of a Florentine goldsmith is to the rich metals that he used. There are sixteen tales in this book, and every one of them is an excellent example of the literary art which the tale is to express.
