Brilliantly Successful Novels by
DORNFORD YATES
3s. 6d. net
“Very few writers can give such pure enjoyment in a single book as does Mr. Yates. He is equally good in comedy, in romance, in drama, or in the tenseness of strong human emotion.”—A Literary Critic.1 BERRY AND CO.“One of the most amusing volumes we have read for a long time. The great charm of the book lies in the wonderfully clever and amusing dialogue. As a tonic it may be strongly recommended.”2 JONAH AND CO.“The descriptions of various motor journeys are thrilling in the extreme; the badinage is brilliant; and the various adventures that befell this delightful party are told with a zest the reader is bound to share.”—Eastern Daily Press, Norwich.3 ANTHONY LYVEDEN“Mr. Yates goes from strength to strength. In every sense of the word a desirable book in the vein of good humour.”—Financial Times.4 VALERIE FRENCH“There are novels and novels, but those which come from the magic pen of Dornford Yates are stories of romantic beauty. Without doubt one of the most delightful novels of recent years.”—Liverpool Courier.5 THE BROTHER OF DAPHNE“There is no man writing to-day who manages to infuse a story with so much wit of the airy, bantering kind, and behind it all there is often a serious note.”—Glasgow Citizen.6 THE COURTS OF IDLENESS“InThe Courts of Idlenessthere is more than clever and amusing talk. One finds a real depth here and there, and the whole thing from beginning to end is delightful reading.”—Joint Stock Journal.7 AND FIVE WERE FOOLISH“The book deserves a host of readers. Extraordinarily powerful and intriguing.”—Daily Telegraph.8 AS OTHER MEN ARE“Mr. Yates gets his effects with a more certain hand and a lighter touch than almost any other writer of light fiction.”—Referee.9 THE STOLEN MARCH“Dornford Yates has a light touch and a keen sense of humour. The book will appeal to those who want to escape from the morbid and miserable and lose themselves in a world of delightful unreality.”—Bookman.10 MAIDEN STAKES“A mixture of frivolity and adventure. Deftly and cleverly written and the best light reading you could wish for.”—Bookman.
