''LA TERkE" is a work to command and
hold public attention. Its Distinguishing

power. At the same time, it contains much
quaint humor. In no other book that lola

subject is agricultural life in France, and
the scene is the great grain growing plain

peasants, who till the soil and have pas
sion for it that nothing can quench. They
all possess marked Individuality, and the
romance wildly depicts their manner of
living, their habits, their loves and their
crimes.
