Synopsis

King Midas A Romance was first published under the title Springtime and Harvest. "I find a fine current of feeling through the pages. They are touched throughout with the hues of poetry and the noblest ideals of life."--Edwin Markham. Upton Sinclair was a Pulitzer Prize-winning who wrote over 90 books, best known for his muckraking novel, The Jungle.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

"O Madchen, Madchen, Wie lieb' ich dich!" It was that time of year when all the world belongs to poets, for their harvest of joy; when those who seek the country not for beauty, but for coolness, have as yet thought nothing about it, and when those who dwell in it all the time are too busy planting for another harvest to have any thought of poets; so that the latter, and the few others who keep something in their hearts to chime with the great spring-music, have the woods and waters all for their own for two joyful months, from the time that the first snowy bloodroot has blossomed, until the wild rose has faded and nature has no more to say. In those two months there are two weeks, the ones that usher in the May, that bear the prize of all the year for glory; the commonest trees wear green and silver then that would outshine a coronation robe, and if a man has any of that prodigality of spirit which makes imagination, he may hear the song of all the world.

Présentation de l'éditeur

I dreamed that Soul might dare the pain; Unlike the prince of old; And wrest from heaven the fiery touch That turns all things to gold.
