The Deep Heart
By ISABEL C. CLARKE
Author of “The Lamp of Destiny,” etc.
The background of Miss Clarke’s new novel is Italy, and in the hands of one who is so sensible to the beauties of that country nothing could be more appropriate. Like her other books, it is a Catholic story, beautifully told in her limpid flowing language with which her readers are familiar.
Avril Waring has never known any other house than the charming villa overlooking Naples, where she lives till her twentieth year, when her mother’s death makes it necessary that she should sell it. The place is bought by Justin, a young man who has recently come into a fortune, and who is determined to enjoy his life to the full. Without disclosing the main theme of the story, we may say that Justin’s selfish course of life deeply affects Avril, but how he is at last brought to a sense of the worthlessness of his life is related with rare skill and feeling.
