CAPRICE, HER BOOK

By Dorothy Senior.

Large crown 8vo., cloth. Price 6s.

The key-note of the book is compensation, ‘ when one door shuts another opens.” From this it may be judged that ‘‘ Caprice” is a story of human life. It is, in fact, the intimate revelation of one whose name was Caprice, but whose nature was far from capricious. À story runs throughout, a thread sufficient to hold the attention and draw it onward, but the fascination of the book lies in the revelation of human beings. The characters become friends, and take their places with those we have met in the flesh. The book claims kinship with ‘* Elizabeth and her German Garden,” ‘ The Golden Age,” “ The Lady of the Decoration,” and others which have charmed thousands, but it has an individuality all its own.
