To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hergesheim er s parsimony in the employment of similes; and how inexpli cably he renders "anything from a chimneypot to the shoulders of a duchess" by somehow communicating the exact ap pearance of the thing described without evading the whole issue by telling you it is like something else. 21 EIGHT NOW this non-employment of time-approved devices seems even the more remarkable when you consider how in tensely Joseph Hergesheimer realizes the sensuous world of his characters and, in particular,... the optic world. He is the most insistently superficial of all writers known to me, in his emphasis upon shapes and textures and pigments. His people are rendered from complexion to coat-tail but tons, and the reader is given precisely the creasing of each fore head and the pleating of their under-linen. Mr. Hergesheim- er s books contain whole warehousefuls of the most carefully finished furniture in literature ; and at quaint bric-a-brac he has no English equal. It is all visioned, moreover, very minutely.
