Leonard Sylvain Jules Sandeau : Marianna

Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 30 November 1844: 'Of [italics]Sandeau[end italics] I have read very little. His "Marianna" has power in its way [...] but acclimatation is a necessary precaution -- for the passion of the book exceeds the comprehension of an Englishman by leagues of extravagance. It's a melancholy, desecrating book'.

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Elizabeth Barrett      Print: Book
