"Mr. Watson has hardly a rival among Australian writers, past or present. There is real power in the book--power of insight, power of reflection, power of a.n.a.lysis, power of presentation.... 'Tis a very well made book--not a set of independent episodes strung on the thread of a name or two, but closely interwoven to the climax." _Sydney Bulletin._
"There is behind it all a power of drawing human nature that in time arrests the attention."--_Athenaeum._
NANCY NOON by BENJAMIN SWIFT
_Second Edition. Cloth_, 6s.
Some Reviews on the First Edition.
"'Nancy Noon' is perhaps the strongest book of the year, certainly by far the strongest book which has been published by any new writer....
Mr. Swift contrives to keep his book from end to end real, pa.s.sionate, even intense.... If Mr. Meredith had never written, one would have predicted, with the utmost confidence, a great future for Mr. Benjamin Swift, and even as it is I have hopes."--_Sketch._
"Certainly a promising first effort"--_Whitehall Review._
"If 'Nancy Noon' be Mr. Swift's first book, it is a success of an uncommon kind."--_Dundee Advertiser._
"'Nancy Noon' is one of the most remarkable novels of the year, and the author, avowedly a beginner, has succeeded in gaining a high position in the ranks of contemporary writers.... All his characters are delightful.
In the heat of sensational incidents or droll scenes we stumble on observations that set us reflecting, and but for an occasional roughness of style--elliptical, Carlyle mannerisms--the whole is admirably written."--_Westminster Gazette._
"Mr. Swift has the creative touch and a spark of genius."--_Manchester Guardian._
"Mr. Swift has held us interested from the first to the last page of his novel."--_World._
"The writer of 'Nancy Noon' has succeeded in presenting a powerfully written and thoroughly interesting story."--_Scotsman._
"We are bound to admit that the story interested us all through, that it absorbed us towards the end, and that not until the last page had been read did we find it possible to lay the book down."--_Daily Chronicle._
"It is a very strong book, very vividly coloured, very fascinating in its style, very compelling in its claim on the attention, and not at all likely to be soon forgotten."--_British Weekly._
"A clever book ... The situations and ensuing complications are dramatic, and are handled with originality and daring throughout."--_Daily News._
"Mr. Benjamin Swift has written a vastly entertaining book."--_Academy._
