_Each Vol. 3s. 6d._
=Pastorals of France.= Fourth Edition.
‘The publication of the “Pastorals” may be said to have revealed
not only a new talent, but a new literary _genre_. The charm of the
writing never fails.’--=Bookman.=
‘In their simplicity, their tenderness, their quietude, their
truthfulness to the remote life they depict, “Pastorals of France”
are almost perfect.’--=Spectator.=
=Renunciations.= Third Edition. With Portrait by J. J. SHANNON, A.R.A.
‘Mr. Wedmore has gained for himself an enviable reputation. He
has the poet’s secret, how to bring out the beauty of common
things.... The “Chemist in the Suburbs,” in “Renunciations,” is his
masterpiece.’--=Saturday Review.=
‘We congratulate Mr. Wedmore on his vivid, wholesome, and
artistic work, so full of suppressed feeling and of quiet
strength.’--=Standard.=
=English Episodes.= Second Edition.
‘Distinction is the characteristic of Mr. Wedmore’s manner. These
things remain upon the mind, as seen--not read of.’--=Daily News.=
‘A penetrating insight, a fine pathos. Mr. Wedmore is a peculiarly
fine and carefully deliberate artist.’--=Westminster Gazette.=
=Orgéas and Miradou.= With Other Pieces.
The beautiful story of “Orgéas and Miradou” is typical of Mr.
Wedmore’s power of expressing and translating the poignancy of
human emotion. It is charged with depth of feeling, and vivid in
its extreme reticence and discrimination of touch. In it, there is
nothing short of divination.’--=Athenæum.=
‘“Orgéas and Miradou” deals with the most poignant situation that
can be imagined. It is the most perfect piece of work Mr. Wedmore
has given us.’--=St. James’s Gazette.=
