 comes to a definite conclusion.

Some Noteworthy Comments 



** 'Hats off, gentlemen — a genius.' . One may mention 'Jean-Chris- 

 tophe* in the same breath with Balzac's 'Lost Illusions'; it is as big 

 as that. . It is moderate praise to call it with Edmund Gosse 'the 

 noblest work of fiction of the twentieth century.' . A book as 

 big, as elemental, as original as though the art of fiction began to- 

 day. . We have nothing comparable in English literature. . "— 

 Springfield Republican. 



"If a man wishes to understand those devious currents which make 

 up the great, changing sea of modern life, there is hardlv a single 

 book more illustrative, more informing and more inspiring. ' — Current 

 Opinion. 



"Must rank as one of the very few important works of fiction of the 

 last decade. A vital compelling work. We who love it feel that it 

 will live." — Independent. 



"The most momentous novel that has come to us from France, or 

 from any other European country, in a decade." — Boston Transcript.
