A Heroine of Reality. A novel by Percy Vincent Donovan. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s.
Literary World.—“Written in an attractive style. The description of Swiss scenery is carefully done, and the story as a whole will be read with interest.”
Vanity Fair.—“The story is briskly and effectively told.”
To-Day.—“Picturesquely staged amid the mountains and valleys of Switzerland. The interest of this powerful story is centred in an unhappy middle-aged woman’s taint of drunkenness, and this secret vice forms the pivot around which the love story of three men for her daughter revolves. The characters are well drawn, and distinctly more human than those one is accustomed to meet in the average novel.”
Daily Despatch.—“The Book abounds in many fine situations. It is an interesting though daring novel.”
The Ice Maiden. A society novel by “Lady Frivol.” Crown 8vo, cloth, 3s. 6d.
Whitehall Review.—“The writer has a very pretty gift of character drawing. The characters of the vain and flimsy society women are drawn with care, knowledge, and vigour.”
Glasgow Herald.—“This tale abounds in romantic sentiment, and in delineations of smart society.”
Free Lance.—“A strange and lively tale.”
Liverpool Courier.—“A society story on daringly original lines.... A charming story of modern fashionable life. The book abounds in unexpected situations, some of which are keenly humourous, and the different characters talk like men and women.”
