I am one of those whom novels hardly interest when they are merely pretentious tableaux of contemporary life. . but there is in yours such a fine quintessence of erudition and observation agreeably mixed and such a joyful flower of tolerant optimism that one finds oneself in it without seeking in the Gallic omniscient and free manner of Master Rabelais.

All your characters are so natural so well placed in their situations so logical that my faith one loves them all and although all this comes from an amiable and indulgent skepticism there one has the explanation of this strange phenomenon that however distant unjust painful the world may be each person nevertheless willingly pushes his wheelbarrow with the conviction and comfort of being right. as the spirit that breathes and animates his books: "". la sympathie du reste vraiment universelle qui accueille tous vos écrits doit vous prouver combien vous êtes humain et sage dans l'antique sens de ces mots."" the truly universal sympathy that welcomes all your writings must prove to you how human and wise you are in the ancient sense of these words. unknown
