(Elizabeth Lydia Rosabelle) Mrs Henry de La Pasture  : Peter's Mother

'The appeal to my literary opinion was not fair. Suppose I had been in one of my cantankerous hours when the book came. But I daresay you were confident. And with reason. No native or acquired cantankerousness could resist the charm of style, the delicate simplicity of expression[...].' Hence follow four more lines of praise.

Century: 1900-1945     Reader/Listener/Group: Joseph Conrad      Print: Book
