Romola [Review]

Title

Romola [Review]

Description

  • Now the reader of <em>Romola </em>will lay it down without admiration, and few without regret. Great as is the power displayed in it, and varied as is the interest awakened in it, there is still the general impression produced by it that the authoress has been tempted into a field where, indeed, she is not less than she has been, but where her merits are obscured, and their effect impaired.
