Fraeulein Else
Fräulein Else resembles an opal flawlessly
cut. It is a Greck drama reduced in scale,
atragic masterpiece done in Dresden China.

Its sequences, moving with a swift and
impetuous fate, make this small novel an
achievement in fiction. Fräulein Else is
literature of the first water.
LAURENCE STALLINGS

Fräulein Else is another book entitled to
mention when discussing winners. It is
as compelling a little story as has appeared
in many seasons

Schnitzler has never written anything to
surpass this, and there are very few short
stories in the world’s literature we should

Philadelphia Public Ledger
Fräulein Else is one of the notable books of
the year. It should rank as a masterpiece
of modern short-storv writing. The style
sweeps forward like that of Conrad in pre¬
senting the storm in Lord Jim.“ One can
almost make the assertion that in every
line Schnitzler reveals his understanding of
human motives and character, the result of
a lifetiwe of keen observation of the be¬
havior of the animal man.

Fräulein Else is a phsychological study
of tremendous force—breathless, absorbing
