Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cousin Alice: A Memoir of Alice B. Haven There is hardly more of likeness between them than between death and life. Indeed these are changeless and dead, while that which they embody is changing and vital, whether it be the landscape which is another yet the same, in every hour´s sun or shade, in the green of spring or amid the autumn´s flying leaves, or whether it be the human form, which with every motion creates a new and livelier sculpture. There must needs come then to the one who has written, or to them who read, a more painful sense of inadequacy and imperfection, when it is a life which has been portrayed, when it is not the single aspect of a form, or of a scene, but the unfolding and upbuilding of a noble character, which has been attempted to be described; its collision with circumstances, and its inner conflicts.
