THE END
REMINISCENT OF DOSTOIEVSKY
WOOD AND STONE
A ROMANCE
By JOHN COWPER POWYS
_12mo, 722 pages, $1.50 net_
This is an epoch marking novel by an author "who is dramatic as is no
other now writing."--Oakland _Enquirer_.
In this startling and original romance, the author turns aside from
the track of his contemporaries and reverts to models drawn from races
which have bolder and less conventional views of literature than the
Anglo-Saxon race. Following the lead of the Great Russian Dostoievsky,
he proceeds boldly to lay bare the secret passions, the unacknowledged
motives and impulses, which lurk below the placid-seeming surface of
ordinary human nature.
It has been reviewed favorably by all of America's principal
newspapers, as the following extracts from press notices will
indicate:
BOSTON TRANSCRIPT: "His mastery of language, his knowledge of human
impulses, his interpretation of the forces of nature and of the power
of inanimate objects over human beings, all pronounce him a writer of
no mean rank.... He can express philosophy in terms of narrative
without prostituting his art; he can suggest an answer without drawing
a moral; with a clearer vision he could stand among the masters in
literary achievement."
