MRS. MARTIN'S MAN. 



By ST. JOHN G. ERVINE. Author of "Mixed 

 Marriage," &c. Cr. 8vo, Cloth, 2/- net. 



MR. H. G. WELLS, in a letter to St. John G. Ervine, says : 



" Your ' Mrs. Martin's Man ' is most amazingly good. 

 I can't resist the impulse to tell you so. It's real and 

 alive and feeling all through. You had bad luck to publish 

 it in the midst of this war confusion, but even that won't 

 drown so fine a thing as yours." 



" Places him at once in the first flight of modern 

 novelists." Outlook. 



" All through it shines the spirit of Mrs. Martin herself, 

 unalterably strong, sweet and sensible." Times Literary 

 Supplement. 



" Mr. Ervine's delineation of this extraordinarily noble 

 woman is perfect." Pall Mall Gazette. 



"One could not imagine a more pathetic and yet 

 withal noble figure than Martha Martin." Globe. 



" Mr. St. John G. Ervine proves himself quite definitely 

 a novelist who counts, whose books are ' right.' " 

 REBECCA WEST in Daily News and Leader. 



" A book which dares to be outspoken to an alarming 

 extent, yet there is in it from beginning to end not one 

 word which is not of absolute unquestioned purity." 

 The Spectator. 



" Ireland is to be congratulated on her new recruit 

 to the ranks of novelists who are also artiste. . . . Mrs. 

 Martin is a real creation, an absolutely living, singularly 

 original and satisfying woman." Morning Post. 



" Mrs. Martin's forgiveness is one of the most beauti- 

 ful things in modern fiction." Everyman. 



" To have drawn a woman at once so colourless and so 

 powerful, so beautiful in spirit, and yet so ilium inatingly 

 true to life, is a very considerable achievement." New 

 Statesman.
