d merrily with his bad luck.--_New York
Times._
A lively, amusing, intensely Gallic series of studies of stage
life.--_The Outlook._
A delicious character, this Brichanteau.--_Detroit Free Press._
The author is so witty and the ridiculous side of his hero is so well
described that the book is a treat--restful and refreshing.
The delicious absurdity of this "optimist failure," "Brichanteau Actor,"
reminds one of Don Quixote, while his consummate good nature is almost
equal to Sir Roger de Coverley's. The clever French author has made his
actor tell for the most part his own story, and in a natural, easy
manner--the perfection of polished French style.--_Chicago Farm, Field,
and Fireside._
