    Jusfc published , A STORY OF MARRIED LOVE AND ITS TROUBLES . DEVERELL : n Mrttl . In Tlnee Volumes . Morning Post . " As a narrative it possesses the invaluable merit of being intensely interesting ; and in point of style , it leaves nothing to bo desired , but , on toe contrary , presents much for our admiration . ' Deverell' is altogether a veiy superior work of fiction , and those who are not insensible to the charms of this branch of literature will experience much gratification iu its perusal . .... The story is related with much nervous -vigour and dramatic effect , and keeps a firm hold upon the mind throughout the entire three volumes . " Le ^ ader . " The character of Dcveroll ia drawn with much power , and tho manner in which the young girl gradually develops her schemes is at once natural and striking . In ono respect the book is singular : its moral and tho illustrations will bo approved by the most orthodox and conventional , while they will bo cordially welcomed by tho most advanced ; and yet again , while the moralist will read with pleasure , tho ordinary novelreader will be drawn on 1 > y that agreeable and unusual variety—a mystery that he does not penetrate from the first . " ATHKN-flSUM . " That which happens after tho knot of Intrigue is tied gives to ' Deverell' some peculiarity among novels . Tho passions do not flow in tho old channels established by mechanical receipt : the maze is partly disentangled , partly shattered , in a mannor which justifies us ia crediting tho author with a truer conception of nature and better knowledge of art than many of tho contemporary romances of life and suffering . ' * Piticsa . " J'ho choractor of Iola ia winning , and in connexion with her fato arc passages of pathos which must apponl to overy heart . " LONDON : CHAPMAN ANX ) 1 IALL , 193 , PICCADILEY .
