Originally published in 1947, The Trial of S\u00f6ren Qvist has
been praised by a number of critics for its intriguing plot and
Janet Lewis's powerful writing. And in the introduction to this new
edition, Swallow Press executive editor and author Kevin Haworth
calls attention to the contemporary feeling of the story-despite
its having been written more than fifty years ago and set several
hundred years in the past. As in Lewis's best-known novel, The Wife
of Martin Guerre, the plot derives from Samuel March Phillips's
nineteenth-century study, Famous Cases of Circumstantial Evidence,
in which this British legal historian considered the trial of
Pastor S\u00f6ren Qvist to be the most striking case.
