Page:Later Life (1919).djvu/5



The Later Life is the second of The Books of the Small Souls, following immediately upon Small Souls, the novel that gives the title to the series. In the present story, Couperus reverts, at times and in a measure, to that earlier, "sensitivist" method which he abandoned almost wholly in Small Souls and which he again abandons in The Twilight of the Souls and in Dr. Adriaan, the third and fourth novels of the series.
