Daniel Deronda [Review]

Description

There are both blemishes and beauties in <em>Daniel Deronda </em>which belong exclusively to this work of its great author. No book of hers before this has ever appeared so laboured, and somtimes even so forced and feeble, in its incidental remarks. No book of hers before this has ever had so many original mottoes prefixed to the chapters which, instead of increasing our admiration for the book, rather overweight and perplex it.
