"St. Peter's Umbrella"
Kálmán Mikszáth
Mrs. Bingham herself was of that "genre" of widow which comes under the "fat, fair, and forty" category, with a never-ceasing flow of high, almost boisterous, spirits-an excellent temper, good health -and a well-stocked purse.

Charles James Lever (1806-1872)
Tchekoff unconsciously gave up the "genre" of pleasant anecdote in order to concentrate all his attention on facts.
"Contemporary Russian Novelists"
Serge Persky
