=Liverpool Courier.=—“A genuinely clever book. Furthermore, it is a book with a wholesome moral vividly enforced.”
=Lady.=—“Whoever the author may be, he has the right literary method, his work is absolutely realistic, his style is fluent and distinctive, and he has the rare faculty of gripping the reader’s attention at the outset and retaining it to the very last. . . . ‘The Hypocrite’ is something more than a remarkable novel—it is, in effect, a sermon, conveying a definite message to those who have the wit to understand it.”
=Morning Post.=—“It is entitled to be regarded as one of the clever books of the day. The writer shows artistic perception. He maintains throughout an atmosphere perfectly in harmony with the idea that has suggested his work.”
