RUSSIAN BOOKS

DEAD SOULS

By Nikolai Gogol

_With an Introduction by Stephen Graham_

“Dead Souls,” written by Gogol in the years 1837-8 is the
greatest humorous novel in the Russian language. It is the most
popular book in Russia, and its appeal is world-wide.

“‘Dead Souls’ is Russia herself. The characters have become
national types, and are more alluded to by Russians than Mr.
Pickwick, Squire Western, Falstaff, Micawber, are by us.”—From
preface by Stephen Graham.

THE BLACK MONK
THE KISS
THE STEPPE

By Anton Tchekhoff

_Translated from the Russian by R. E. C. Long and Adeline
Lister Kaye_

Tchekhoff is regarded in his own country as the most talented of
the younger Russian writers. Tolstoy has compared him to De
Maupassant. His writings have gone through numberless editions in
Russia, but two of the above volumes are translated into English
for the first time.

His art is noted for its simplicity, shades of psychological
insight and subtle humor. In his stories is that spirit of
permanence which lives mainly in the Past and the Future, and so
truly represents the spirit of Russia.

“Tchekhoff is a true impressionist in the large sense of the
word. His aim is less to divert by a tale, than to plunge one
body and soul into a given environment.”

“You Can Get Any Book on Any Subject”

NEW BOOKS FOR THE DISCRIMINATING READER

_“Mr. Dreiser proves himself once more a master realist ... he is
a great, a very great artist. In a season remarkable for its
excellent fiction this new book of his immediately takes its
place in the front rank.”—New York Tribune._

The “Genius”

By Theodore Dreiser

Author of “Sister Carrie,” “The Titan,” etc.

Cloth, $1.50 Net

¶ Eugene Witla is one of those strange personalities which
occasionally spring up among the humdrum types of common life, an
exotic flower in a vegetable garden. Brilliant, irregular,
unstable, he attracts and repels in the book as in life. The
story deals with his rise as an artist, and later as a business
man.

¶ He is one of those powerful and yet fragile personalities to
whom great success and great disaster almost inevitably come. His
weakness lies in the insatiable hunger of his mind and body for
the charm of feminine youth and beauty. His conquests form a
series of fascinating episodes, gay with all the colors of love
and art.

¶ Eugene is in search of the “Impossible She.” When he is at
the height of his success, he finds her. He reaches out his arms
to grasp her, and at that moment the whole structure of his life
crumbles beneath him. Abysses open, at the bottom of which lie
all but insanity. He struggles to save himself. At the end of the
book—but read it.

A STORY OF GENIUS, RESTLESS POWER
AND CREATIVE ENERGY SEARCHING
FOR LIFE’S SOLUTION

_“The ‘Genius’ is a work of art to which Dreiser has risen from
mere works of devoted craft.”—St. Louis Mirror._

_“Dreiser’s work reminds one at times of Zola, of Balzac and of
Tolstoy.”—New York Times._

_“His study of this fine character in fiction (The ‘Genius’)—a
strictly Twentieth Century product—is full of human interest and
psychic significance.”—Philadelphia North American._

_“A separate and colossal effort.... Its people live, its lesson
is all the more forceful for the author’s consistent refusal to
pass it. Yes, Mr. Dreiser indubitably is an artist.”—Chicago
Herald._

and a Biographical Note by Margaret Lavington.
Photogravure Frontispiece. Cloth, $1.25 net._

“Among all who have been poets and died young it is hard to think
of one, who both in life and death, has so typified the ideal
radiance of youth and poetry.”—GILBERT MURRAY _in the Cambridge

ART

old slough of platitude-mongering and sentimentalizing.”—_Smart
Set._
