The English Saturday Rspisw calls Mrs.
Humphry Wards new story a clever study
in psychology, a subtle and effective han
ding Of the eternal problem Of Free Will and
Necessity, by which the author shows how
the same environment will envelop and
affect a man which is utterly poWerless to
modify the temperament Of a woman.
William Ashe y rounded and fattened and
crushed into the orthodox mould by the to
him irresistible pressure Of English tradition
and public opinion; but 1t is against his will,
The same pressure produces on Lady Kitty
no effect, or rather a contrary effect, for IL
drives her the faster toward the doom to
which her inherited character predestined
her. The English critic pronounces the
book Mrs. Wards greatest achievement,
but insists that It Is not a novel-simply a
study in heredity without plot, and with no
incidents worth recording, arousing purely
scientific interest in the transformation Of
the laughing philosopher into the solemn
statesman and the struggles Of the wretched
wife with her unconquerable gypsy blood.
