_THE GREATER GLORY. A Story of High Life._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS,
author of "God's Fool," "Joost Avelingh," etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
"Until the Appletons discovered the merits of Maarten Maartens, the
foremost of Dutch novelists, it is doubtful if many American readers
knew that there were Dutch novelists. His 'God's Fool' and 'Joost
Avelingh' made for him an American reputation.... He is a master of
epigram, an artist in description, a prophet in insight."--_Boston
Advertiser._
"It would take several columns to give any adequate idea of the superb
way in which the Dutch novelist has developed his theme and wrought out
one of the most impressive stories of the period.... It belongs to the
small class of novels which one can not afford to neglect."--_San
Francisco Chronicle._
"Maarten Maartens stands head and shoulders above the average novelist
of the day in intellectual subtlety and imaginative power."--_Boston
Beacon._
_GOD'S FOOL._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
"Throughout there is an epigrammatic force which would make palatable a
less interesting story of human lives or one less deftly told."--_London
Saturday Review._
"A remarkable work."--_New York Times._
"Maarten Maartens has secured a firm footing in the eddies of current
literature.... Pathos deepens into tragedy in the thrilling story of
'God's Fool.'"--_Philadelphia Ledger._
"The story is wonderfully brilliant.... The interest never lags; the
style is realistic and intense; and there is a constantly underlying
current of subtle humor.... It is, in short, a book which no student of
modern literature should fail to read."--_Boston Times._
_JOOST AVELINGH._ By MAARTEN MAARTENS. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
"So unmistakably good as to induce the hope that an acquaintance with
the Dutch literature of fiction may soon become more general among
us."--_London Morning Post._
"A novel of a very high type. At once strongly realistic and powerfully
idealistic."--_London Literary World._
"Full of local color and rich in quaint phraseology and
suggestion."--_London Telegraph._
"Maarten Maartens is a capital story-teller."--_Pall Mall Gazette._
"Our English writers of fiction will have to look to their
laurels."--_Birmingham Daily Post._
