"An effort undertaken in a hopeful and promising spirit to grapple with the problems of human life... Its lit erary merits we find in what is incidental, or even accidental, rather than in what is essential to its structure."Spectator, lix. 391.

"The story is an odd mixture of really shrewd and able writing and the flimsiest sentimental philosophy."-Sat. Rev., XXXV 456.

"It is, perhaps, the pleasantest of all Lord Lytton's books; it contains the tenderest of his pictures, perhaps the most truly poetical of his poems, many admirable specimens of his wit, and far less than almost any other of his works of his tinselly rhodomontade."-Spectator, xlvi. 476. 13. The Parisians. Illust. Lon., 1873, 4 vols. cr. 8vo; new ed., 1874, 2 vols. 12mo.

"Lord Lytton's last three novels form a group by themselves. They are all intended to signalize the danger of certain political and social theories. The e Coming Race' did this by means of purely fanciful symbols; Kenelm Chillingly' was a psychological romance, and 'The Parisians' is a didactic novel. With much good portraiture and some clever writing upon political and social topics, it does not produce a satisfactory impression."

-Sat. Rev., xxxvi. 815.

The Parisians' is its author's ripest work.... Graces of style, acquired by long labour, have grown into second nature. Egotism has disappeared in a species of gentle, genial epicureanism. We have the last novel of a novelist who, conscious of the lapse of time, is consciously writing for posterity.

"To write the life of such a man is no easy task. The abundance of the material in some respects increases the make a selection, and the Earl of Lytton can only in two difficulty. Where so much is known, it is not easy to volumes arrive at his father's twenty-ninth year..

"To have written a poem in six books at once entertaining, witty, and capable of enchaining the reader's interest, is a triumph of literary skill, even if the work in question should in truth be more of a novel in verse than a genuine poem. The earnest student of poetry will, no spite of its fertility of invention and brilliancy of dialogue. doubt, feel the lack of sincerity in Glenaveril,' which, in may strike some as monstrous in mere invention. He will miss the power of evolving typical forms more real than living man' from the shifting world around, and that incommunicable gift of turning each word that drops from the poet's mouth into the pearls and precious stones of speech. But apart from these rare and superlative qualities, Glenaveril' may be said to possess most of the merits which a mere narrative poem can possess. It touches on a wonderful variety of topics, the burning questions and most picturesque characteristics of the day, while rarely losing sight of the central idea, . . . the inevitable law of heredity."-Ath., No. 3018.

"There is much in this book that recalls the author's striking and beautiful Fables in Song. It does not, I think, on the whole, maintain so high a level; but it has the same special merit, the same mixture of romantic thought with piercing aperçus from life and experience, reminding one of the finer work of the elder Lord Lytton, -the same defect, as I venture to think it, of mingling real poetry with a hard and gritty humour, a crackling of thorns under a pot."-E.
