From Lippincott's Magazine.
"'Remorse,' which appeared recently in the Revue des Deux Mondes, is a novel of great power. The author, who writes under the name of 'Th. Bentzon,' is Madame Blanc, a woman of great intelligence and the highest character."
From the New York Sun.
"The story entitled 'Remorse' attracted much attention from the grace and vivacity of its style, and from the singular vigor evinced in the portrait of a literary personage whose successive love-affairs were turned to the account of his poetry and novel-writing. The essential shallowness and meanness of such a nature are strikingly contrasted with the earnest and genuine character of the heroine, and the elements of a tragical situation are evolved with much ingenuity out of this antithesis. There is in these figures a certain crispness and vividness, as if the author had studied their counterparts In real life."
From the New York Graphic.
"Told with such grace and delicacy as to render it intensely interesting. It belongs to the best class of modern French fiction, which embraces the finest representatives of literary taste and skill."
From the New York Evening Post.
"Th. Bentzon is a novelist of no mean gifts, even in the art of apt narration, while her handling of strong passion is at times very fine. 'Remorse' is a tale of considerable power."
From the Boston Courier.
