ELINE VERE. By Louis Couperus. Translated from the Dutch by J. T. Grein. With an Introduction by Edmund Gosse. Holland Fiction Series. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
"The established authorities in art and literature retain their exclusive place in dictionaries and hand-books long after the claim of their juniors to be observed with attention has been practically conceded at home. For this reason, partly, and partly also because the mental life of Holland receives little attention in this country, no account has yet been taken of the revolution in Dutch taste which has occupied the last six or seven yean. I believe that the present occasion is the first on which it has been brought to the notice of any English-speaking public.… 'Eline Vere' is an admirable performance."—Edmund Gosse, in Introduction.
