Translated by Richmond Lndy.
"The Professional Lover" by Gyp, pub |
lished by the well-known house of +.
Tennyson Nicely, New York. is a clever
sketch OF French life in the smart set.
The fact that il is a very frivolous lit
lie story does not seem TO detract from
It's interest. The novel is written in dia-
logue, and from start to finish there is
not a dull question or answer. D'Epe- |
ron, the hero, is a lady-killer. There |
are some few men Ike him In real life. |
He acts his part of the professional lover
well because he cannot help himself. |
