Sinopsis
Excerpt from Men's Tragedies
Just north of the mouth of the Elbe a deso late peninsula stretches out into the gray waters of the North Sea. On a wind-beaten bluff at its extreme end stands a huge squat stone castle, with one square tower rising lonesomely into the air. Behind lie the sand-hills, covered with saw grass and scrub cedars, and further behind, ten English miles away, the long gloomy shore of Holstein stretches north and south in flat storm beaten downs. Looking in the other direction from the castle tower, one's eye travels directly seaward, from the rocky base of the peninsula below to the steel-colored sea-horizon far away.
The great steamers, passing in and out of the Elbe, go by to the south. One can just see the brown reek of their funnels.

Excerpt from Men's Tragedies
Not one book of fiction in a thousand needs a preface. But, as this collection of nine fictional essays is intended to be taken less from a fictional point of view than from an analytical, perhaps these few words of explanation are not an egotism. These studies of strong emotions - they might well be called studies of intensity - are cast in a fictional form solely for the reason that life is but a realized fiction. We do not live essays. Fiction is the least unworldly form of literature, the closest to the individual.
But be it understood that each of these terrible tales has an intention; that each of these men is intended to express a different character and idea. On the other hand, each of the tales has a certain likeness to each of the others, - they are all tragedies, - and the men have certain fundamental points of resemblance. Let us speak first of the likenesses in the studies.
