Edited by WILFRID EAST , 3 vols . " A story of English life ia a variety of phases , which can scarcely fail to interest tha general reader . " —Examiner . in . AFTER DARK . By WILKIE COLLINS . Author of - Basil , " " Hide and Seek , " & c . 2 vols . "A series of tales supposed to lie told to a portrait-painter by his Bitters ; the frame-work tells us how he came to think of publishing the stories thus collected ; the introductions describe the circumstances under which the tales were told- These portions have a delicate every-day in terest . The tales are stories of adventure , well varied , and often striking in the incidents , or with thrilling situations ; and are as pleasant reading as a novel reader could desire . " ~ lSpeci , aior , J & Er . Wilkie Collins takes high rank among the few who can invent a thrilling story , ana tell it with brief simplicity . The power of commanding the faculties of his readers is exercised in nearly all these stories . " —Qloie . •" JCr . Wilkie Collins possesses a rare faculty : I'art de confer . No man living better tells a story . He has been happy in his choice of a thread whereon to string the pearls ; vre feel an independent interest in it , and read it almost as eagerly as the stories themselves . "—Leader . IV . AM B E E HI L 1 . By A . J . BARROWCLIFFE . 2 vols . " There is great power in f Amberhill , ' and some of tie shrewdest . sketehest of character vre have ever met with . If \ ve suppose the story to be the work df an artist , the leading characters to be imagined , and her whole career from first to last to be shaped by design , we must regard it » s a wohderfpl work of creative genius . "—JPress . ¦ ' Amberhill . '' is an exciting book . There is si freshness and force , a petulant graces and a warm-hearted satirical vein in * A mberhill , * which will give it a charm to every 'Mate novel reader . The characters are vigorously dra-wn and have genuine life in thoxa . " -Globe . "There is ta'erit and yigonfr about this work . The story is told ^ vith great energy aid some eloquence . "—^ fAentEUjn . ' ? Afjperhill' appears to be intended as a lesson against weakness ' of character , over-lust of wealth , and disregard of religion . . The ' . writer has one great quality for fiction , that of commanding the attention of the reader . "—Sj-ectator . London : S 3 IITH , E ^ DER and GO ., d 5 , Cornhill .
