WHERE HIGHWAYS CROSS.
“His study of the first and only love of a middle-aged man who, for forty years, has lived only in his work and his thoughts, has no touch of conventionality, but is a singularly truthful and vivid rendering of the late, sudden, and almost convulsive blossoming of a supreme passion.”— Daily Chronicle.
“I very much doubt whether the story of a middle-aged man’s first and last love has ever been told with more of truth and tenderness than are found here.”— The New Age.
“A charming idyll. Thoroughly original, and cleverly worked out.”— Guardian.
