Marie "Sophie" Cottin : Elisabeth, ou les Exiles de Siberie

'We have a little French story in the house, called [underlined] Elizabeth [end underlining], much admired and praised: but "somehow", I have taken it into my head that it is [underlined] too good [end underlining] for my palate, because Mrs W - the strictest person in the world about Novels, put it into the hands of my Bone - and my bone yawned over it - andd when I asked her how she liked it, said - "O very much - only there's hardly any love in it!" Whip Novels without love!'.

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Anna Wilbraham      Print: Book
