The greatest of Arnold Bennett's writings has now crossed the Rubicon ofmerely transient popularity and bids fair to become a classic. Itrecounts from early girlhood to old age the lives of two sisters, theexact opposites to one another in temperament. Though its spaciouscanvas teems with incidents and characters, all the interestconcentrates on these two women; the world revolves about them. It is astory of reality; a record extraordinarily faithful of the infinitenumber of infinitesimal changes which steal away youth with increasingyears.
The book is of heroic proportions. Here all the emotions of a life-timeare met together on one stage. It is real as life, and large asdestiny.
