Though Beatrice is a significant departure from most of his literary output, critics and fans alike regard this fine novel as one of H. Rider Haggard's most accomplished works. A richly detailed account of an ill-fated but spiritually significant romance, the tale contains some of Haggard's most affecting writing in terms of emotional resonance and in-depth characterization.
