Excerpt from Little Journeys in History and LiteratureThe style of Browning, like that of Carlyle, as often conceals as reveals the author's thought.This fact deters many from giving Browning's poems the attention they deserve, a circumstance to be deplored, since Browning supplies so much of poetic suggestion that one cannot study him without being strengthened and enriched both intellectually and spiritually.Among the voluminous works of this poet that best merit and most richly reward close study is The King and the Book, the plot of which is founded upon an account of a seventeenth century murder, as described in a little old book for sale in the market place at Florence.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
