Excerpt from The Life Work of Henri Rene Guy De Maupassant, Embracing Romance, Comedy Verse, for the First Time Complete in English The public as a whole consists of diverse groups, whose cry to us authors is: Comfort me Amuse me, Touch me, Make me dream, Make me laugh, Make me shudder, Make me weep, Make me think. Only a few chosen spirits say to the artist: Give me something good in any shape that suits you best, according to your own tempera ment. The artist makes the attempt, and succeeds or fails. The critic should judge the result only in rela tion to the nature of the attempt, he has no business to trouble himself about tendencies. This has been said a thousand times already, it will always bear repetition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
