Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Author of Beltraffio, the Middle Years Greille Fane: And Other Tales What I had lately and most particularly to say of "The Coxon Fund" is no less true of "The Middle Years," first published in Scribner´s Magazine (1893) - that recollection mainly and most promptly associates with it the number of times I had to do it over to make sure of it. To get it right was to squeeze my subject into the five or six thousand words I had been invited to make it consist of - it consists, in fact, should the curious care to know, of some 5550 - and I scarce perhaps recall another case, with the exception I shall presently name, in which my struggle to keep compression rich, if not, better still, to keep accretions compressed, betrayed for me such community with the anxious effort of some warden of the insane engaged at a critical moment in making fast a victim´s strait-jacket. The form of "The Middle Years" is not that of the nouvelle, but that of the concise anecdote; whereas the subject treated would perhaps seem one comparatively demanding "developments" - if indeed, amid these mysteries, distinctions were so absolute.
