POPULAR FRENCH NOVELS,
TRANSLATIONS OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF RECENT FRENCH FICTION OF AN
UNOBJECTIONABLE CHARACTER.
ONE SHILLING EACH.
Novel-readers owe the publishers a deep debt of gratitude for
providing an entirely new and harmless source of literary enjoyment,
a fountain flowing with the milk and honey of culture, sparkling with
wit and humour, having the flavour of real life and the colour of
romance.—_Illustrated London News._
ADVERTISEMENT.
London Managers run eagerly after the plays of modern French Dramatists,
and produce them with much success at our principal Theatres, whereas
London Publishers rarely venture upon issuing Translations of new
French Novels. Yet the latter are equally good with the former, which
indeed they commonly suggest. To test whether English novel readers,
unconversant with the French language, are not as appreciative of
clever works of fiction as English playgoers are of clever dramas and
_operas bouffes_, this series of Translations of some of the very best
and newest French Novels has been undertaken. It may be mentioned that
especial care has been bestowed on the selection, only those works of
an unobjectionable character, and which can be presented to the English
reader in an unabridged form, having been chosen.
The following list of the earlier volumes of the series comprises several
works which have met with an immense sale in France, and have been
translated into most European languages:—
