Athenaeum.--"In
the
creation
of
the
'atmosphere'
of
the
play
M.
Maeterlinck
shows
his
skill.
It
is
here
that
he
communicates
to
us
the
nouveau
frisson,
here
that
he
does
what
no
one
else
has
done.
In
'The
Intruder'
the
art
consists
of
the
subtle
gradations
of
terror,
the
slow,
creeping
progress
of
the
nightmare
of
apprehension.
Nothing
quite
like
it
has
been
done
before--not
even
by
Poe--not
even
by
Villiers."
=THE
FRUITS
OF
ENLIGHTENMENT=:
A
Comedy
in
Four
Acts.
By
Count
LYOF
TOLSTOY.
Translated
from
the
Russian
by
E.
J.
DILLON.
With
Introduction
by
A.
W.
PINERO.
Small

Pall
Mall
Gazette.--"The
whole
effect
of
the
play
is
distinctly
Molieresque;
it
has
something
of
the
large
humanity
of
the
master.
Its
satire
is
genial,
almost
gay."
=HEDDA

A
Drama

Norwegian

EDMUND

net.
Times.--"The
language
in
which
this
play
is
couched
is
a
model
of
brevity,
decision,
and
pointedness....
Every
line
tells,
and
there
is
not
an
incident
that
does
not
bear
on
the
action
immediate
or
remote.
As
a
corrective
to
the
vapid
and
foolish
writing
with
which
the
stage
is
deluged
'Hedda
Gabler'
is
perhaps
entitled
to
the
place
of
honour."
