Excerpt from Nora: A Novel Taken From the GermanIt has often been said, and with reason, that a novel written with a marked tendency - religious or political - is tedious.If we want instruction or enlightenment, we had rather seek both in bond fide treatises, than have to wade through long controversial dialogues, or be preached at by a novel-writer. We take up a novel in. a moment of leisure, when we feel unfitted for more serious study, and we seek to be amused or touched.On the other hand, it is natural that those authors whose noble desire is to gain admiration for their Faith, by showing it under its real colours - in its beneficial influence upon daily life - should not give up the task because they do not feel equal to deeper or more serious works.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
