With the day of its publication, in 1910, "The Modern Chronicle" headed
the list of "Books Most in Demand" at the libraries and the Bookman list
of "Six Best Sellers" in almost every large city of this country. Its
success was confined not only to this side of the water but in Great
Britain, as well; the book was in great demand. These conditions were
due to the fact of the author's established reputation with the great
majority of American and English readers, and to the merits of a work
which received almost unanimous appreciation from the press of both
countries.
Three years have passed since the tremendous success of "A Modern
Chronicle," and during this time Mr. Churchill has worked upon and
completed the novel which, perhaps more than any other, will create
discussion and admiration and go furthest to assure the author's
reputation as the biggest literary figure in America to-day.
"The Inside of the Cup," Mr. Churchill's latest novel, may be rightly
called the sum of his genius. It contains the same art of his former
work, broadened, enriched and matured, and reflects the romance of
"Richard Carvel," the realism of "Coniston," and the deep social
significance of "A Modern Chronicle." From a masterly delineation of the
personal history of a young clergyman and the transformation of his
views and attitudes toward modern society, Mr. Churchill unfolds a
powerful study of the present tendencies in the Church and their new
relation to the life of to-day.
"The Inside of the Cup" is unquestionably the most impressive novel that
Mr. Churchill has yet written, in character drawing and illuminative
disclosures of the cross sections of society, and in the portrayal of
their more delicate and crucial relation to conditions vital to the
national welfare.
