Opinions, generous tributes to genius, by well-known authors whose names are withheld. "Well, I have read 'Kismet,' and it is certainly very remarkable. The story is interesting,--any well-told love story is, you know,--but the book itself is a great deal more so. Descriptively and sentimentally,--I use the word with entire respect,--it is, in spots, fairly exquisite. It seems to me all glowing and overflowing with what the French call _beauté du diable_.... The conversations are very clever, and the wit is often astonishingly like the wit of an accomplished man of the world. One thing which seems to me to show promise--great promise, if you will--for the future is that the author can not only reproduce the conversation of one brilliant man, but can make two men talk together as if they _were_ men,--not women in manly clothes." "It is a charming book. I have read it twice, and looked it over again, and I wish I had it all new to sit up with to-night. It is so fresh and sweet and innocent and joyous, the dialogue is so natural and bright, the characters so keenly edged, and the descriptions so poetic. I don't know when I have enjoyed any thing more,--never since I went sailing up the Nile with Harriet Martineau.... You must give the author love and greeting from one of the fraternity. The hand that gives us _this_ pleasure will give us plenty more of an improving quality every year, I think." "'Kismet' is indeed a delightful story, the best of the series undoubtedly." "If 'Kismet' is the first work of a young lady, as reported, it shows a great gift of language, and powers of description and of insight into character and life quite uncommon.... Of the whole series so far, I think 'Mercy Philbrick's Choice' is the best, because it has, beside literary merit, some moral tone and vigor. Still there are capabilities in the writer of 'Kismet' even higher than in that of the writer of 'Mercy Philbrick's Choice.'"
