1899 THE CHOIR INVISIBLE BY JAMES LANE ALLEN HISTORIC ROMANCE HB COND: GOOD

Description: See Photos of book above for books content details This is a novel by James Lane Allen published in 1897. A bestseller, it was the 2nd best selling book in the United States for 1897.A poignant love story, it is set in Kentucky in 1795 and begins with a portion of the poem "Choir Invisible" by George Eliot Though criticized for lacking depth, being full of digressions, and "artistically disappointing", it was his most popular novel. An 1897 review in The Atlantic Monthly faulted the book for its "meagre" structure, yet praised its tone and style. The book is often regarded as Allen's best work.The novel was developed from a novelette Allen published in 1893 titled "John Gray: A Kentucky Tale of the Olden Time".It is a story set in the green wilderness of Kentucky. Parts of the tale are taken from "John Gray" and the entirety is wonderfully written. This book will keep your attention and make you wonder exactly what happened to that little blue and white checkered bundle that fell unnoticed from that white bobtail horse's side saddle.
