Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sugar Princess When a novelist has written twenty-two books, all of which - from the standpoint of his publisher´s ledger, at least - have proved "successful," it may not be out of place for him to review his work. I therefore ask your indulgence for a brief retrospect. You noticed that "Stranger than Fiction" marked a decided departure in my style of writing, and will see that "A Sugar Princess" adheres to the new lines. Inexhaustible as the old field is, valuable as it may be to any sensible reader, there are other paths which I prefer to explore. "Thou Shalt Not" was a bold tale, but I have never been sorry I wrote it. To relate such a story in language fit for the nursery would be impossible. It was intended for men and women and a sale of nearly a quarter of a million copies proves what a vast number must have read it. I hope and believe it has done some good. About "His Private Character" I have more doubt. There are moments of flippancy in that novel which, perhaps, had better not be there; though the moral lesson is unmistakable.
