To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But our romantics do notso weave them; they fling them out as contributions to life'sevidence, they fail to relate them to a single interpretation ofliving, and half of the best incidents are waste, and clog theslow-rolling wheels of the story.
They waste their energy also. So keenly do they love their ownconception of true living that their imaginations dwell with akind of horrid fascination upon the ugly things that thwart them. Hence in a novel like "Main Street, " the interest slackens as o...nebegins to feel that the very vividness of the story comes from avision strained and aslant, unable to tear eyes from the thingsthat have cramped life instead of expanding it. The things thatthese writers love in life often they never reach until the lastchapter, and about them they have little to say, being exhaustedby earlier virulence.
Waste, of course, is a symptom of youth and vitality as well as ofunbridled romanticism, but that is no reason for praising a bookbecause it is disorderly. We do not praise young, vigorous statesfor being disorderly.
