1928. "You believe pretty thoroughly in these things, or you
wouldn't abandon the eternal triangle and the other stock subjects
of the modern novelists to write the story of Gilles de Rais," and
after a silence Des Hermies added, "I do not object to the latrine;
hospital; and workshop vocabulary of naturalism. For one thing, the
subject matter requires some such diction. Again, Zola, in
L'Assommoir, has shown that a heavy-handed artist can slap words
together hit or miss and give an effect of tremendous power. I do
not really care how the naturalists maltreat language, but I do
strenuosity object to the earthiness of their ideas. They have made
our literature the incarnation of materialism - and they glorify
the democracy of art "
