THE LATEST NOVELS YOU WILL ENJOY THESE AND THEY ARE IDEAL GIFTS FOR YOUR FRIENDS TOO. Francis Brett Young’s New Full Length Novel—“A MAN ABOUT THE HOUSE’’ The story starts in an old-fashioned English house where two sisters live under the serene rule of their father, a retired officer of the Indian army, a gentleman of the Old School. On his death the scene changes to a lovely Italian villa overlooking the Bay of Naples where they are free to live their own lives. The consequences of this change and the blossoming of suppressed emotions under the hot Mediterranean sun make a dramatic story which is told with all the author’s skill and charm. H/6 (Posted 12/-). By M. H. Tiltman, author of “Quality Chase.” “MRS MOREL” The theme of this novel is Power. Most of the characters that crowd in upon you from these pages enjoy it in some form, but Mrs Morel, who never makes a personal entrance on the scene at all, holds them and their actions in the hollow of her hand. You will feel that you know the Sussex setting of this novel and that the characters are your old friends. 9/-. Posted 9/8. Stuart Cloete writes of the Boer War of 1880. “THE HILL OF DOVES” Cloete knows and loves the land and people of whom he writes. His new novel tells the stories of Lena, Dirk, her young Boer lover, Boetie, his blind brother and is as usual, full of a rich variety and incident. In these days it is good to read a novel with no axe to grind and one written with such power and sincerity. 13/6. Posted 14/2. DEE STREET, INVERCARGILL. TELEPHONE 393. ABRAHAM WACHNER.
