O knihe

Excerpt from The Yellow Book, Vol. 6: Illustrated Quarterly

I may declare in regard to these allusions that, whatever I then thought of myself as a holder of the scales, I had never scrupled to laugh out at the humour of Mrs. Highmore's pursuit of quality at any price. It had never rescued her, even for a day, from the hard doom of popularity, and, though I never gave her my word for it, there was no reason at all why it should. The public would have her, as her husband used roguishly to remark; not indeed that, making her bargains, standing up to her publishers and even, in his higher ¿ights, to her reviewers, he ever had a glimpse of her attempted conspiracy against her genius, or rather, as I may say.
