“The pure idealism of ‘Into the Highways and Hedges’ does much to redeem modern fiction from the reproach it has brought upon itself.... The story is original, and told with great refinement.”--_Philadelphia Public Ledger._ * * * * * NOVELS BY MAARTEN MAARTENS. _THE GREATER GLORY. A Story of High Life._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS, author of “God’s Fool,” “Joost Avelingh,” etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. “Until the Appletons discovered the merits of Maarten Maartens, the foremost of Dutch novelists, it is doubtful if many American readers knew that there were Dutch novelists. His ‘God’s Fool’ and ‘Joost Avelingh’ made for him an American reputation. To our mind this just published work of his is his best.... He is a master of epigram, an artist in description, a prophet in insight.”--_Boston Advertiser._ “It would take several columns to give any adequate idea of the superb way in which the Dutch novelist has developed his theme and wrought out one of the most impressive stories of the period.... It belongs to the small class of novels which one can not afford to neglect.”--_San Francisco Chronicle._ “Maarten Maartens stands head and shoulders above the average novelist of the day in intellectual subtlety and imaginative power.”--_Boston Beacon._ _GOD’S FOOL._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. “Throughout there is an epigrammatic force which would make palatable a less interesting story of human lives or one less deftly told.”--_London Saturday Review._ “Perfectly easy, graceful, humorous.... The author’s skill in character-drawing is undeniable.”--_London Chronicle._ “A remarkable work.”--_New York Times._ “Maarten Maartens has secured a firm footing in the eddies of current literature.... Pathos deepens into tragedy in the thrilling story of ‘God’s Fool.’”--_Philadelphia Ledger._ “Its preface alone stamps the author as one of the leading English novelists of to-day.”--_Boston Daily Advertiser._ “The story is wonderfully brilliant.... The interest never lags; the style is realistic and intense; and there is a constantly underlying current of subtle humor.... It is, in short, a book which no student of modern literature should fail to read.”--_Boston Times._ “A story of remarkable interest and point.”--_New York Observer._ _JOOST AVELINGH._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50. “So unmistakably good as to induce the hone that an acquaintance with the Dutch literature of fiction may soon become more general among us.”--_London Morning Post._ “In scarcely any of the sensational novels of the day will the reader find more nature or more human nature.”--_London Standard._ “A novel of a very high type. At once strongly realistic and powerfully idealistic.”--_London Literary World._
