WHAT WILL THEY SAY NEXT? But we believe that the effect upon most people will be what it certainly is upon one reader, who is NOT IN THE LEAST SHOCKED, but is considerably BORED. —C. O. Review. A verse may find him who a sermon flies, and there is likely to be here and there one, who seeing in a bookseller's window the red cover and the black, the very black, cart thereon, will incontinently purchase. His arguments are closely logical when he chooses to make them so, though their sequence and arrangement are bewilderingly haphazard. The whole effect is of a hotch-potch composed in a lunatic asylum; and the pictures seem madder than the letterpress.... Much to the irritation of my wife, for supper was waiting, I read on till I had read the book right through.... The "mad" author of this book is Douglas Pepler, the "mad" artist is Eric Gill. When I say "mad" I am, for the moment, taking it for granted that the world is sane. ......................... (and so on very nicely for several columns.) The drama is skilfully unfolded (though the author fails over the spelling of Nietzsche, page 29) and interspersed with wood-cuts ... and a still more excellent account of the passing of the poor man's parlour. The author has marked with the toe of his boot the moral weakness on which the Devil depends for his power over the modern world. Mr. Pepler perpetually DROPS into dialogue with FATAL —New Age. |
