She
tore
herself
from
him
suddenly
and
ran
up
the
steps
.
He
felt
a
quick
moisture
in
his
eyes
.
"
Martin
Eden
,
"
he
communed
.
"
You
’
re
not
a
brute
,
and
you
’
re
a
damn
poor
Nietzscheman
.
You
’
d
marry
her
if
you
could
and
fill
her
quivering
heart
full
with
happiness
.
But
you
can
’
t
,
you
can
’
t
.
And
it
’
s
a
damn
shame
.
"
"
‘
A
poor
old
tramp
explains
his
poor
old
ulcers
,
’
"
he
muttered
,
remembering
his
Henly
.
"
‘
Life
is
,
I
think
,
a
blunder
and
a
shame
.
’
It
is
—
a
blunder
and
a
shame
.
"
"
The
Shame
of
the
Sun
"
was
published
in
October
.
As
Martin
cut
the
cords
of
the
express
package
and
the
half
-
dozen
complimentary
copies
from
the
publishers
spilled
out
on
the
table
,
a
heavy
sadness
fell
upon
him
.
He
thought
of
the
wild
delight
that
would
have
been
his
had
this
happened
a
few
short
months
before
,
and
he
contrasted
that
delight
that
should
have
been
with
his
present
uncaring
coldness
.
His
book
,
his
first
book
,
and
his
pulse
had
not
gone
up
a
fraction
of
a
beat
,
and
he
was
only
sad
.
It
meant
little
to
him
now
.
The
most
it
meant
was
that
it
might
bring
some
money
,
and
little
enough
did
he
care
for
money
.
He
carried
a
copy
out
into
the
kitchen
and
presented
it
to
Maria
.
"
I
did
it
,
"
he
explained
,
in
order
to
clear
up
her
bewilderment
.
"
I
wrote
it
in
the
room
there
,
and
I
guess
some
few
quarts
of
your
vegetable
soup
went
into
the
making
of
it
.
Keep
it
.
It
’
s
yours
.
Just
to
remember
me
by
,
you
know
.
"
He
was
not
bragging
,
not
showing
off
.
His
sole
motive
was
to
make
her
happy
,
to
make
her
proud
of
him
,
to
justify
her
long
faith
in
him
.
She
put
the
book
in
the
front
room
on
top
of
the
family
Bible
.
A
sacred
thing
was
this
book
her
lodger
had
made
,
a
fetich
of
friendship
.
It
softened
the
blow
of
his
having
been
a
laundryman
,
and
though
she
could
not
understand
a
line
of
it
,
she
knew
that
every
line
of
it
was
great
.
She
was
a
simple
,
practical
,
hard
-
working
woman
,
but
she
possessed
faith
in
large
endowment
.
Just
as
emotionlessly
as
he
had
received
"
The
Shame
of
the
Sun
"
did
he
read
the
reviews
of
it
that
came
in
weekly
from
the
clipping
bureau
.
The
book
was
making
a
hit
,
that
was
evident
.
It
meant
more
gold
in
the
money
sack
.
He
could
fix
up
Lizzie
,
redeem
all
his
promises
,
and
still
have
enough
left
to
build
his
grass
-
walled
castle
.
Singletree
,
Darnley
&
Co
.
had
cautiously
brought
out
an
edition
of
fifteen
hundred
copies
,
but
the
first
reviews
had
started
a
second
edition
of
twice
the
size
through
the
presses
;
and
ere
this
was
delivered
a
third
edition
of
five
thousand
had
been
ordered
.
A
London
firm
made
arrangements
by
cable
for
an
English
edition
,
and
hot
-
footed
upon
this
came
the
news
of
French
,
German
,
and
Scandinavian
translations
in
progress
.
The
attack
upon
the
Maeterlinck
school
could
not
have
been
made
at
a
more
opportune
moment
.
A
fierce
controversy
was
precipitated
.
Saleeby
and
Haeckel
indorsed
and
defended
"
The
Shame
of
the
Sun
,
"
for
once
finding
themselves
on
the
same
side
of
a
question
.
Crookes
and
Wallace
ranged
up
on
the
opposing
side
,
while
Sir
Oliver
Lodge
attempted
to
formulate
a
compromise
that
would
jibe
with
his
particular
cosmic
theories
.
Maeterlinck
’
s
followers
rallied
around
the
standard
of
mysticism
.
Chesterton
set
the
whole
world
laughing
with
a
series
of
alleged
non
-
partisan
essays
on
the
subject
,
and
the
whole
affair
,
controversy
and
controversialists
,
was
well
-
nigh
swept
into
the
pit
by
a
thundering
broadside
from
George
Bernard
Shaw
.
Needless
to
say
the
arena
was
crowded
with
hosts
of
lesser
lights
,
and
the
dust
and
sweat
and
din
became
terrific
.
"
It
is
a
most
marvellous
happening
,
"
Singletree
,
Darnley
&
Co
.
wrote
Martin
,
"
a
critical
philosophic
essay
selling
like
a
novel
.
You
could
not
have
chosen
your
subject
better
,
and
all
contributory
factors
have
been
unwarrantedly
propitious
.
We
need
scarcely
to
assure
you
that
we
are
making
hay
while
the
sun
shines
.
Over
forty
thousand
copies
have
already
been
sold
in
the
United
States
and
Canada
,
and
a
new
edition
of
twenty
thousand
is
on
the
presses
.
We
are
overworked
,
trying
to
supply
the
demand
.
Nevertheless
we
have
helped
to
create
that
demand
.
We
have
already
spent
five
thousand
dollars
in
advertising
.
The
book
is
bound
to
be
a
record
-
breaker
.
