Phyllis: A Novel
‘A clever and interesting novel.’—Spectator. ‘Very pleasant writing.’
—Queen.
Molly Bawn
‘Really an attractive novel, idealising human life without departing from the truth, and depicting the love of a tender, feminine, yet high-spirited girl in a most touching manner. Full of wit, spirit, and gaiety. All women will envy and all men will fall in love with her. Higher praise we surely cannot give.’
—Athenæum.
‘AIRY FAIRY LILIAN.’
‘A delightful story, cast in the same mould as its predecessors. The characters are cleverly drawn, the dialogue is terse and pointed.’—Court Journal.
Mrs. Geoffrey
‘A prettier or more readable story than “Mrs. Geoffrey” nobody need wish to meet with.’
—Scotsman.
Rossmoyne
‘Monica Beresford is a very pretty example of Irish naïveté dissociated from shilleaghs; and there is true humour in the conception of Kit, her sister.’
—Academy.
Doris
‘“Doris” is a clever story of a marriage of convenience.... The dialogue is good: that of “Dicky Browne,” a kind of licensed jester, being really bright and lively. The heroine is well drawn, and so is a terrible aunt of hers, whose encounters with the Marquis (himself a clever portrait) are diverting.’
—Academy.
Green Pleasure and Grey Grief
‘“Green Pleasure and Grey Grief” is what many of its readers will be inclined to call a sweetly pretty story.’
—Athenæum.
Portia
‘“Portia, or by Passions Rocked,” is of the category of novels to which may fairly be applied the epithet of “charming.”’
—Morning Post.
Beauty’s Daughters
‘Another triumph.... Of the success of the story there can hardly be any doubt.’ Court Journal.
Faith and Unfaith
‘A singularly bright, vivacious, readable story.’
—Illustrated London News.
‘Distinctly superior to three-fourths of the fiction published.’—Academy.
Lady Branksmere
‘.... Sufficiently sensational to suit the most ardent admirers of fiction, and yet contains much that is worthy of admiration.’
—Court Journal.
LOŸS, Lord Berresford, and Other Tales
‘A collection of stories which cannot fail to be popular. There is something good in all of them, and one or two are especially racy and piquant.’
—Academy.
Under-Currents
‘Altogether as enjoyable as one is accustomed to expect from the clever author of “Molly Bawn.”’
—Scotsman.
