Every body knows FAS.VY FKRX; every body has
laughed and cried over her sparkling, dashing, truth
ful, geuial writings; every body will wish to read
this, her lirst novel, and every one who does read it
will pronounce it her greatest work. Says an able
critic who has read the proof sheets, "RUTH HAM. is
a work which not only exceeds any thing which
Fanny Fern has before written, but which in many
respects passes any other work whatever. For in
tense and sustained interest of narrative, for origina
lity of conception and treatment, for scorching sar
casm and withering rebuke of pretensions and hypo
crisy, f,,r elevation of mora! tone and winsotnencM
of religious inculcations, for vigor, freshness, simpli
city, directness and fascination of style, we have ne
ver seen its equal. ♦ • • The story takes
possession of our hearts at once; we follow 'Rim'
through hpr trials with as much interest as though
she were our own sisier; she breathes not a sigh, she
suffers not a sorrow, which the reader does not !eel
as acutely as though the lirst came from hi# own
heart, and the second were one of his own sad e.vpe
liences. The characters ate such as we are con
stantly meeting in every-day life; and how boldly
and skilfully they me drawn, how powerfully the
story is told, how touching is its pathos, how spark
ling its wit, how irresistable its humor, how severe
its satire, and how true its moral, no adequate idea
can he gained except by reading it."
