"An immensely clever study of an American girl and of the havoc wrought by her entry into an ordinary English country family. It is probably the best novel Miss Sedgwick has yet written."—Evening Standard.
"Miss Sedgwick has never done better than in this novel and in nothing is it so admirable as in the way in which her laughter leaves us and her ready to admire Adrienne when, not changed, but converted, she learns from Oldmeadow how much she has grown in spiritual wisdom."—Daily News.
"A remarkable and living narrative, well deserving all the applause that it has received."—Outlook.
"It is a surprising book—delicate and imaginative. Miss Sedgwick excels in the rendering of recurrent moods, changes of attitude, subtle currents of feeling. This is by far the best work she has given us."—British Weekly.
"A novel of rare distinction."—Pall Mall Gazette.
"No one could read 'Adrienne Toner' without determining to miss nothing from the same pen."—Birmingham Post.
"It is a long time since one has read a novel at once as interesting and as satisfying in its craftsmanship as this. Miss Sedgwick's artistry is firmer and stronger in her new book than ever yet. The way in which Adrienne is made visible is from the start quite masterly."—Review of Reviews.
"The book is to be read, thoughtfully and carefully, and with the realization that all the time we are seeing into some of the complexities of human nature as they are presented to us to-day. A fascinating and powerful and uncommon book."—Church Times.
