While the book is one for mature minds,
the skill with which delicate situations are handled and the reserve
everywhere exhibited remove it from possible criticism even by the
most exacting. The title, it should be explained, refers to a spirited
race horse with the fortunes of which the lives of two of the leading
characters are bound up.
Faces in the Dawn
A Story by HERMANN HAGEDORN
With frontispiece in colors. Cloth, 12mo. $1.35 net.
A great many people already know Mr. Hagedorn through his verse.
_Faces in the Dawn_ will, however, be their introduction to him as
a novelist. The same qualities that have served to raise his poetry
above the common level help to distinguish this story of a German
village. The theme of the book is the transformation that was wrought
in the lives of an irritable, domineering German pastor and his wife
through the influence of a young German girl and her American lover.
Sentiment, humor and a human feeling, all present in just the right
measure, warm the heart and contribute to the enjoyment which
the reader derives in following the experiences of the well drawn
characters.
