Show MARRIAGE DISCUSSED IN THREE GREAT NOVELS It is not often that a single issue of a magazine publishes at the same time three distinguished novels but that is what this month's Cosmopolitan can boast of. The issue before the public contains con-tains the first installment of John Galsworthy's latest novel, "In Chancery." Chan-cery." The foreword to the novel tells that it presents a story of the love and desire of middle age. Those who enjoyed John Galsworthy's "Man of Property" will certainly find a great deal of pleasure in reading "In Chancery," as it continues the career of the Forsyte family, with Soames Forsyte, the victim of a strange domestic entanglement, from which he is ardently desirous of extricating himself. This new Galsworthy novel, like all his others, shows the touch of his master hand. In this month's Cosmopolitan appears ap-pears the second, and very generous, installment of "Star Dust," Fannie Hurst's novel, the first this short-story short-story writer has ever written. The publishers are very enthusiastic about Miss Hurst's first venture into the novelists' realm, and their enthusiasm Is justified by the remarkable novel Miss Hurst has written. In the same number also appears the continuation of "Kindred of the Dust,", by Peter B. Kyne, and it is holding Cosmopolitan's milion and a half readers besides adding new ones. There, is not much question but that Mr. Kyne Is one of America's foremost novelists, and that he writes remarkably remark-ably well about character he knows and understands. In this issue of Cosmopolitan also appear short stories and special features fea-tures by some of the best known writers in this country. Among them are Meredith Nicholson, Rupert Hughes, Gouverneur Morris, Frank R. Adams, Will Payne, Dana aGtlin, Jack Boyle, Thomas Burke, Harvey O'Hig gins, Harris Dickson and Edgar Guest. |
