BOOK INFO: From the French by the translator of the Mysteries of Paris and the Wandering Jew. With twenty engravings under the superintendence of Mr. Charles Heath from designs by Jules David. See photos for complete table of contents. 2 v. in 1. 14 cm. We found this wonderful review in a period issue of The Literary Annual Register and Catalogue Raisonné of new publications which doesn't do much to recommend the title but we couldn't resist including it here with a SPOILER ALERT: 'Another of Eugene Sue's long-winded novels in which the interest mainly depends upon a complicated plot and what the scribes of the Coburg call 'striking situations.' The sum of it is that Paula Monti is a lady troubled with many loves and many lovers that she adopts a Bohemian girl who is so fond of her mistress as to be jealous of all her admirers and that after some four hundred pages of adventure marriage included the said Paula is shot by mistake and her very affectionate follower commits suicide by water. In mere mercy to the judicious portion of our readers we spare the details.' Chapman and Hal hardcover
