* * * * *

"The leading characters in this typically modern tale are very
well drawn, and the author has distanced all her fellow-novelists
of her own sex in the delineation of a woman whose heartlessness
may be truly called devilish. The strength of this portrait is
remarkable. The other woman is effective too, and the tangle of
the relations of the three is put right by a device of startling
originality."--_World._

"Few cleverer books have come under our notice for many months
past."--_Daily Telegraph._

"A story with the one supreme merit of originality."--_Daily
Chronicle._

"Another study of the New Woman, and a most brilliant and convincing
study. Celia Adair is almost an inspiration. Such a woman has never
been drawn with more absolute truthfulness.... A very powerful and
pathetic piece of work."--_Speaker._

"A very clever story; ... it is on the crest of the wave."--_Review
of Reviews._

"Had we space, we should like to make a good many quotations from
the sayings of Celia. Her principles are abominable, and her morals
are of the laxest; but many of her remarks are original, pungent,
and entertaining. A good deal of thought has evidently been expended
upon this book,"--_Saturday Review._
