  V.V.'S EYES

  By HENRY SYDNOR HARRISON

  "'V.V.'s Eyes' is a novel of so elevated a spirit, yet of such stronginterest, unartificial, and uncritical, that it is obviously afulfillment of Mr. Harrison's intention to 'create realliterature.'"--_Baltimore News._

  "In our judgment it is one of the strongest and at the same time mostdelicately wrought American novels of recent years."--_The Outlook._

  "'V.V.'s Eyes' is an almost perfect example of idealistic realism. Ithas the soft heart, the clear vision and the boundless faith in humanitythat are typical of our American outlook on life."--_ChicagoRecord-Herald._

  "A delicate and artistic study of striking power and literary qualitywhich may well remain the high-water mark in American fiction for theyear.... Mr. Harrison definitely takes his place as the one among ouryounger American novelists of whom the most enduring work may be hopedfor."--_Springfield Republican._
