SOME PRESS OPINIONS OF

POOR RELATIONS

By COMPTON MACKENZIE

SUNDAY TIMES:
'Poor Relations' is a book that from cover to cover is informed with wit, humour and high spirits, and is yet in its own way a mordant criticism of life."

OBSERVER:
The vitality that is Mr. Compton Mackenzie's tremendous gift makes the book as tonic as a spring day.... In vividness, in sheer colour and variety, Mr. Compton Mackenzie is unmatchable."

WORLD:
One of the drollest books written for years."

DAILY NEWS:
Here is an imagination almost Dickens-like in its abundance."

DAILY CHRONICLE:
Nothing could be more effective, nothing more persistently and ineffably droll."

EVENING NEWS:
It is all rich comedy; it exudes humours on every page."

LAND AND WATER:
Three hundred pages of charming and farcical light-heartedness."
