EFFIE HETHERINGTON
BY
ROBERT BUCHANAN

_Second Edition. Crown 8vo., cloth,_ 6s.

"Mr. Robert Buchanan has written several novels ... but among those which we know, there is not one so nearly redeemed by its ability and interest.... The girl is simply odious; but Mr. Buchanan is a poet--it would seem sometimes _malgré lui_, in this instance it is _quand même_--and he dowers the worthless Effie with a rugged, half-misanthropic, steadfast lover, whose love, never rewarded, is proved by as great a sacrifice as fact or fiction has ever known, and who is almost as striking a figure as Heathcliff in 'Wuthering Heights.'"--_World_.
