The Disaster

Excerpt from The Disaster

The collaboration of the two brothers dates nearly three years back, when they started work upon Le Désastre,' the most important, up to the present, of their joint productions. Several of their short stories, including La Pariétaire,' are already well known to readers of Cosmopolis. I believe that their first published work appeared in September, 1896.
