Book Description
Excerpt from Gleanings From Maeterlinck I have collected in the present volume a selec tion of essays illustrating the later stages of Maeter linck's quest. Never in history have so many women and men, stricken suddenly and without warning, sought so unanimously and painfully to penetrate the veil wherein the world's oldest mys tery is shrouded. The finality of death was a chal lenge flung down and eagerly taken up by all whom the loss of son or brother had taken unawares. To Maeterlinck the war has brought in great part the annihilation of a people, his own people; it has inspired him to a Splendour of indignation and pity; but, more gravely and urgently than ever before, it has demanded of him an answer to the question jof the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection. Readers wishing to study the complete series of essays from which the sixteen in this volume are taken will find them in the three books entitled, Our Eternity, The Unknown Guest and The Wrack of the Storm, all of which are issued by the present publishers.
