Books and the Quiet Life: Being Some Pages from The Private
Papers of Henry Ryecroft
By GEORGE GISSING
950 copies, Fcap 8vo, 75 cents net
To the lover of what may be called spiritual autobiography,
perhaps no other book in recent English literature appeals with
so potent a charm as "The Private Papers of Henry Ryecroft." It
is the highest expression of Gissing's genius--a book that
deserves a place on the same shelf with the Journals of De Guérin
and Amiel. For the present publication, the numerous passages of
the "Papers" relating to books and reading have been brought
together and given an external setting appropriate to their
exquisite literary flavor.
Mr. Mosher also begs to state that the following new editions
are now ready:

THE DRAMA
736 Marquette Building
CHICAGO
A QUARTERLY DEVOTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A WIDE AND
INTELLIGENT INTEREST IN DRAMA
Each issue of The Drama contains a translation of a complete
play. These plays, which are not otherwise accessible in English,
represent especially the leading dramatists of the continent.
Chosen as they are from various countries and from many schools,
they give one an introduction to the most significant features of
modern dramatic art. Plays by Giacosa, Donnay, Gillette, Tagore
and Andreyev have appeared recently. Forthcoming numbers will
bring out the work of Goldoni and Curel.
