A Continuation of “Saracinesca” and
“Sant’ Ilario.”
“The third in a remarkable series of novels dealing with three
generations of the Saracinesca family, entitled respectively
‘Saracinesca,’ ‘Sant’ Ilario,’ and ‘Don Orsino,’ and these novels
present an important study of Italian life, customs, and conditions
during the present century. The ‘new Italy’ is strikingly revealed in
‘Don Orsino.’”--_Boston Budget._
“We are inclined to regard the book as the most ingenious of all Mr.
Crawford’s fictions. Certainly it is the best novel of the
season.”--_Evening Bulletin._
“The plot of the story (‘Don Orsino’) is one of the best that the author
has constructed. The mystery of Maria Consuelo’s birth and her relation
to Spicca is most ingenious, continually suggesting a false trail to the
reader, and its end surprising and satisfying him with its adequateness.
When you combine all these things with a wonderful beauty of diction and
facility of expression, you have that very difficult achievement--a
thoroughly good modern romance.”--_Life._
