PHYLLIS: A NOVEL.
'A clever and interesting novel.'--SPECTATOR. 'Very pleasant
writing.'--QUEEN.
MOLLY BAWN.
'Really an attractive novel, idealising human life without departing
from the truth, and depicting the love of a tender, feminine, yet
high-spirited girl in a most touching manner. Full of wit, spirit, and
gaiety. All women will envy and all men will fall in love with her.
Higher praise we surely cannot give.'--ATHENAEUM.
'AIRY FAIRY LILIAN.'
'A delightful story, cast in the same mould as its predecessors. The
characters are cleverly drawn, the dialogue is terse and
pointed.'--COURT JOURNAL.
MRS. GEOFFREY.
'A prettier or more readable story than "Mrs. Geoffrey" nobody need wish
to meet with.'--SCOTSMAN.
ROSSMOYNE.
'Monica Beresford is a very pretty example of Irish _naivete_
dissociated from shilleaghs; and there is true humour in the conception
of Kit, her sister.'--ACADEMY.
DORIS.
'"Doris" is a clever story of a marriage of convenience.... The dialogue
is good: that of "Dicky Browne," a kind of licensed jester, being really
bright and lively. The heroine is well drawn, and so is a terrible aunt
of hers, whose encounters with the Marquis (himself a clever portrait)
are diverting.'--ACADEMY.
GREEN PLEASURE AND GREY GRIEF.
'"Green Pleasure and Grey Grief" is what many of its readers will be
inclined to call a sweetly pretty story.'--ATHENAEUM.
PORTIA.
'"Portia, or by Passions Rocked," is of the category of novels to which
may fairly be applied the epithet of "charming."'--MORNING POST.
BEAUTY'S DAUGHTERS.
'Another triumph.... Of the success of the story there can hardly be any
doubt.' COURT JOURNAL.
FAITH AND UNFAITH.
'A singularly bright, vivacious, readable story.'--ILLUSTRATED LONDON
NEWS.
