Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Love-Birds in the Coco-Nuts Ilolina, want to write a novel, an irresistible, fascinating novel, a novel for readers old and young. I should like to win the approbation of your archdeacons, of your actor-managers. I want my photograph to be exhibited in your shop windows, and a place for me reserved in your Westminster Abbey. I want, in short, to write a novel that will make me famous among you. But several are the obstacles. For one, not the plot. I have a story to tell, a true story, a story that may bring tears to many an eye. It may also call forth blushes - the story, not the telling of it. If it does I shall be sorry. Can I - little acquainted with the manners and thoughts of English ladies - hope to avoid blundering into the region of the better left unsaid? The boundaries of that region are invisible to the untrained eye of an Eastern woman. I can only tell the truth and hope for the best. But if I tell the truth I shame the devil, so your proverb says. So difficult is the path of the novelist, it seems to me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
