BY MARCELLE TINAYRE.
=THE SHADOW OF LOVE.= Crown 8vo. 6/- Translated from the
French by A. R. Allinson, M.A.
Of the newer French novelists Marcelle Tinayre is perhaps the
best known. Her work has been crowned by the French Academy and
she possesses a very large public in Europe and in America. The
story deals with a girl’s love and a heroic sacrifice dictated
by love. “The Shadow of Love” is a book of extraordinary power,
uncompromising in its delineation of certain hard, some might
say repulsive facts of life, yet instinct all through with an
exquisitely tender and beautiful passion of human interest and
human sympathy.
