'As for novels, read by all means Mr. Besant's delightful "The Bell of St. Paul's," which I took up as a task to skip and skim, reviewer-fashion, but had to read through with the absorption of the youngest young-lady subscriber to Mudie's.'-TRUTH. 'Never has Mr. Besant pictured a daintier figure than Alethea.... And the more we hear sweet Alethea talk, the more we love her.... Inimitable art.'-THE PLAYGOER. 'Mr. Besant's humour and feeling and lightness of touch make "The Bell of St. Paul's" a very pretty piece of fiction.' MANCHESTER GUARDIAN. 'Many of the scenes are excellent comedy, and there is touching pathos in the humiliation and restoration of poor Aunt Florry. We can promise every reader a good deal of pleasure before "The Bell of St. Paul's" is heard for the last time across great London's famous river.'-ILLUSTRATED NEWS. 'A delightful novel.'-BEEHIVE. The principal features will impress themselves on the reader's recollection... Of Alethea, the river-nymph, who reads poetry as other girls read novels, nothing is too enthusiastic to be said.' ATHENÆUM. 'The book overflows with that human sympathy which is the distinctive note of Mr. Besant's genius. . . . The lines of Mr. Besant's story are cast on a grand scale. The pageant he presents is so moving and so varied that we can but be grateful to him for this other romance of life in the East End.'-DAILY NEWS. 'We can promise the reader a pleasant task, for "The Bell of St. Paul's" is as pretty a piece of fiction as he is likely to find this publishing season.'-ST. JAMES'S GAZETTE. 'One of the most charmingly idyllic stories we have read for a long time. In point of style, the author is at his best-light, bright, humorous, picturesque, sympathetic.'-GLASGOW HERALD. |
