Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contemporary French NovelistsIn our day a singularly false idea prevails in regard to boldness in art. A11 author who has at fronted the scruples of good taste, applauds him self on his audacity; he ought rather to reproach himself for awkwardness and a heavy hand. Art consists in knowing how to say everything so that it shall be accepted. It is thus that in painting a criminal passion, Feuillet has produced a picture which is not indeed chaste, which is even the re verse, but remains, after all, decent.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
