Description
This Is The End is a novel by Stella Benson, first published in 1917. The story follows a group of people living in a small English town who suddenly find themselves cut off from the rest of the world by a mysterious and impenetrable barrier. As the days pass, the townspeople must confront their own fears and desires, and struggle to come to terms with the end of the world as they know it.The novel is a unique blend of science fiction, social commentary, and philosophical musings, and is considered a classic of early 20th century literature. Benson's writing is characterized by its wit, humor, and sharp observations of human nature, and her characters are vividly drawn and memorable.This Is The End is a thought-provoking and engaging read that explores themes of isolation, community, and the human condition in the face of catastrophe. It is a timeless work that still resonates with readers today.Now to be simple is all very well, but turn it into an active verb and you spoil the whole idea. To simplify seems forced, and I think Mrs. Gustus struck harder on the note of simplification than that of simplicity. I should not dare to criticise her, however, and Cousin Gustus was satisfied, so criticism in any case would be intrusive. It is just possible that he occasionally wished that she would dress herself in a more human way--patronise in winter the humble Viyella stripe, for instance, or in summer the flippant sprig. But a large proportion of Mrs. Gustus's faith was founded on simple strong colours in wide expanses, introduced, as it were, one to another by judicious black.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
