The Speech of Monkeys

=WORK WHILE YE HAVE THE LIGHT.= From the Russian of Count LYOF TOLSTOY. Liverpool Mercury.--"Marked by all the old power of the great Russian novelist." Manchester Guardian.--"Readable and well translated; full of high and noble feeling." =FANTASY.= From the Italian of MATILDE SERAO. National Observer.--"The strongest work from the hand of a woman that has been published for many a day." Scottish Leader.--"The book is full of a glowing and living realism.... There is nothing like 'Fantasy' in modern literature.... It is a work of elfish art, a mosaic of light and love, of right and wrong, of human weakness and strength, and purity and wantonness, pieced together in deft and witching precision." =FROTH.= From the Spanish of Don ARMANDO PALACIO-VALDES. Daily Telegraph.--"Vigorous and powerful in the highest degree. It abounds in forcible delineation of character, and describes scenes with rare and graphic strength." =FOOTSTEPS OF FATE.= From the Dutch of LOUIS COUPERUS. Daily Chronicle.--"A powerfully realistic story which has been excellently translated." Gentlewoman.--"The consummate art of the writer prevents this tragedy from sinking to melodrama. Not a single situation is forced or a circumstance exaggerated." =PEPITA JIMENEZ.= From the Spanish of JUAN VALERA. W. D. Howells.--"An exquisite masterpiece." New Review (Mr. George Saintsbury):--"There is no doubt at all that it is one of the best stories that have appeared in any country in Europe for the last twenty years." =THE COMMODORE'S DAUGHTERS.= From the Norwegian of JONAS LIE. Athenaeum.--"Everything that Jonas Lie writes is attractive and pleasant; the plot of deeply human interest, and the art noble."
