This volume is a collection of some of the best studies of Mr. W. R. Titterton, one of the most brilliant journalists of the Modern School, whose volume "Love Poems" has been one of the successes of the publishing season.
"Studies in Solitary Life" is not a collection of stories with plots, but rather true life studies and character sketches of unattractive people from the worldly standpoint.
Tramps, beggar-children, ledger-clerks, bohemian town-dwellers and all lonely people claim the author's sympathy, and his virile pen presents their surroundings and emotions so powerfully and realistically that the reader at once feels personally acquainted with the characters portrayed. When the reader has finished the book, he will find that he has been listening to a startling indictment and a triumphal justification of Life.
