Characterization is Miss Woolson’s forte. Her men and women are not mere puppets, but original, breathing, and finely contrasted creations.—Chicago Tribune.
Miss Woolson is one of the few novelists of the day who know how to make conversation, how to individualize the speakers, how to exclude rabid realism without falling into literary formality.—N. Y. Tribune.
For tenderness and purity of thought, for exquisitely delicate sketching of characters, Miss Woolson is unexcelled among writers of fiction.—New Orleans Picayune.
For swiftly graphic stroke, for delicacy of appreciative coloring, and for sentimental suggestiveness, it would be hard to rival Miss Woolson’s sketches.—Watchman, Boston.
