Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Treasure Island Prince Otto Years ago when I was a little boy of twelve I was spending my holidays in Scotland with my mother and my step-father. He was an unknown and unsuccessful author named Robert Louis Stevenson, who wrote books that never passed beyond one small edition, and whose gay acquiescence in failure cost me many a childish pang. I knew that his books were very poor, for being a great reader I had toiled through every one of them. Indeed, they were so uninteresting that I even wondered he had as many as the seven hundred and fifty readers whom he said he could always count on. Feeling that he ought to do better, I often timidly remonstrated with him, pointing out that while he wrote beautifully, was not his fault perhaps in the choice of subjects? But his only answer was to burst out laughing and then to tell me with humorous impressiveness that there was certainly one thing he would never never he - and that was a popular author.
