This strongly conceived dramatic and exciting story of Anglo-Indian life by a new writer who is backed by such high literary authorities demands the attention of every reader.
Mr. Joseph Conrad: "The whole work is artistically sincere.... The author understands her people with a first-hand knowledge."
Mr. W. J. Locke: "A well-written nervous story by one who knows India thoroughly. The drama of the flight is admirably conceived."

As the title suggests, this is a literary tapestry in which have been harmoniously blended the glittering vibrations of joy that threadlike run through our lives with the crepuscular greys that act as a contrast. A pattern of singular beauty has resulted, into the texture of which have been absorbed the emotions, impulses, thoughts, and reflections that make up life's total. The volume is rich with the personality of Myrtle Reed. It is characterized by the combination of humor and sentiment that belongs to all the writings of the gifted author and that has endeared her to a world-wide circle comprising probably not less than two million sympathetic admirers.
