Like Stars that Fall
BY GEOFFREY MORTIMER
AUTHOR OF "TALES FROM THE WESTERN MOORS"
"The theme of this story is music-halls and the careers of their
artistes. It is treated with evident understanding, as though the phase
of life represented were observed at first hand. Only within recent
years have the halls been visited and discussed by respectable middle-
class folk ; only recently have they been made the subject of novelistic
enterprise. The author of ' Like Stars that Fall' has produced a clear,
and apparently true, picture of the people and their surroundings.
From the time the reader is itltroduced into the back parlour of the
small provincial greengrocer and his stage-struck wife, on to the time
of her London successes and failures in a totally new walk of life, there
is an appearance of reality. ' Lou,' in spite of her good looks, is not
altogether our own idea of a winsome woman ; yet she is human, and
the events of her life excite interest and pity, not only for her, but for
the deserted child and the sturdy little tradesman husband, who has a
kind of bluff dignity of character. The sense of good-fellowship, the
talk and chaff, and the occasional 'nastiness' of the comrades, their
sordid lives, and at times dismal deaths, are conveyed in anything but
a stupid fashion."- The A tkeneu~.
