Book Description
Excerpt from The Novels, Romances and Writings of Alphonse Daudet: The Little Parish Church That he had not attempted a task beyond his powers was at once apparent. The old charm re appeared in the description of the quiet country along the Seine a few miles out of Paris a setting furnishing an admirable foil to the passionate scenes to be enacted. The old sympathy for humanity in all its aspects reappeared in the excellent description of the passers upon the highway, especially of that pathetic tramp, Pere Georges. There were even traces of the sponta neous humor of yore, and everywhere there was evidence that Daudet had by no means abandoned his practice of studying attentively the living docu ment. The psychological power, too, that had been marked in other works again stood him in good stead, and toward the close of the new story there was enough action to satisfy the readers that demanded interest. Clearly T/ze Little Paris/z Chunk, if a new departure, was by no means a sign that the master's powers were agging seriously and that he was vainly endeavor ing to conceal the fact from himself and his admirers.
