The title novella was originally written for inclusion in the novel
It is Never too Late to Mend (1856) but omitted for artistic considerations, as he believed ‘a story within a story is a frightful flaw in art.’ This 1858 collection also contains the short novels
Jack of All Trades and
A Hero and a Martyr.
