A Great Italian Romance

THE GADFLY

By E. L. VOYNICH. 12mo. $1.25

An intense romance of the Italian rising against the Austrians early in the nineteenth century. It has gone through over twenty impressions.

“She shows us the veritable conspirator of history, who plotted like a human being, and not like an operatic bandit, ... it is a thrilling book and absolutely sober.... ‘The Gadfly’ is an original and impressive being; ... a story to remember. It is nothing more or less than one of the most powerful novels of the decade.”—New York Tribune.

“One of the most interesting phases of the history of nineteenth-century Europe. The story of the Italian revolutionary movement ... is full of such incidents as the novelist most desires.... This novel is one of the strongest of the year, vivid in conception and dramatic in execution, filled with intense human feeling, and worked up to a tremendously impressive climax.”—Dial.

“Paradox worked up with intense dramatic effect is the salient feature of ‘The Gadfly’; shows a wonderfully strong hand, and descriptive powers which are rare; ... a very remarkable romance.”—New York Times.

“An historical novel permeated with a deep religious interest in which from first to last the story is dominant and absorbing.... ‘The Gadfly’ is a figure to live in the imagination.”—Critic.
