S. Pritchett, New Statesman "Few writers in America or anywhere else have matched [Miss Porter's] powers of deep poetic concentration, her intelligence, her responsiveness to the inner life of her characters, her sharp sense of the pressing forces of history, nationality, and social atmosphere." -Joseph Featherstone, The New Republic Vissza
