The elegant young men of whom
Ouida writes usually breakfast at mid
day on peaches, chocolate and cakes,
and yet are great athletes and general
wonders on this sybaritic diet. Dis
raei does not descend to specify meals,
but has a way of introducing gorgeous
banquets of unlimited courses. Every
thing in 'Lothair" happens at dinner
parties and fat little birds in aspic
jelly and ortolans usually form part
of the menu.
The record-union., 1899-10-22

Woman novelists, particularly Ouida,
rarely allow their heroes and heroines
to partake of a substantial meal, while
in the pages of the men writer's feasts
abound. Compare Dickens and Thack-
cray. Each is fond of feeding his char
acters, but Thackeray tells of the feasts
with an epicurean touch, an apprecia
tion Of the delicacies of the table, while
Dickens written meals are always
hearty, plain, boiled beef and greens
and meat pies ruling.
