Ainslee's Magazine/The Moon Out of Reach

From Wikisource
The Moon Out of Reach (1922)
by Margaret Pedler
Extracted from Ainslee's, 1922, Feb–July. Accompanying illustrations may be omitted. “Empty hands, outstretched in vain for the silvery moon out of reach, sometimes succeed in grasping instead the tremulous star of love.”

It's interesting to note how the success of the book changed the tone of the reviews:. from: Satisfying romance for your weaker moments. For women only.—The Bookman, July 1922 —— Light summer reading which apparently will keep on being read after the hammocks have gone to roost.—The Bookman, Oct 1922 (More on the discussion page)
