E' WILFULNESS OF WOMAN.
♦ NOVEL.
Iry the Authoress of " The History of a Flirt," &c.
" This is a very brilliant novel. The vigour and power displayed
in these pages shames the masculine intellect of the best male writer
of the day, at the same time the writer's knowledge of the female
• heart is so great and subtle, that we can imagine that no ono but a
" woman could have written them. The character of the wilful
Ilarriet Trelawney is drawn in a most masterly manner ; but it
would be needless to pick out particular actors in this most extraor-
dinary novel. do novelist of the present day has so much mastery
over the passions of the reader as the writer of the work before us.
Nothing has Issued from the press equal to it since the last work by
same hand."—Weekly Chronicle.
Henry Colburn, Publisher, 13, Great Marlborough-street.
