“Two charming stories by ‘Ouida’ are included in a dainty little volume (‘The Silver Christ’; ‘A Lemon Tree’). Comparatively few persons—so at least it seems to us—appreciate this writer at her true value. We have not the highest opinion of much of her work; it is meretricious and even vulgar. But at her best she is capable of truly exquisite writing, and it is in shorter tales, dealing with an episode—brief studies of character—that she is at her best.”—Boston Courier.

“Is pathetic, simple, and beautifully told, and those who have classed Ouida among the forbidden fruits of literature, should read it to understand what an artist with the pen she is.”—Boston Times.
