Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from French Novelists of to-Day The serious reader, says Sainte Beuve, resembles the pedestrian setting forth on a walking tour with his knapsack on his back. He can carry only a few articles. The difficulty is to know what to take and what to leave behind. Likewise the reader, confronted by millions of books, is perplexed as to what to read and what to leave unread. Such a selection is especially puzzling when it has to be made from a foreign literature, and one so abundant as the French; for, as every Japanese draws, so every Frenchman writes, we are told. It is the critic´s business to aid the reader in his choice. To indicate what contemporary French novels are likely to interest English readers and why, is my ambition in these essays.
