“Here are two short stories by Mr Hudson, good enough for most writers, but not his best. We could praise them for many things; if they were by an unknown writer we should be content to praise; we should even enjoy them more than we do now, knowing the other works of their author; but, as it is, we are perhaps a little ungrateful for their many beauties because we cannot refrain from asking why the short story, even in ‘El ombu,’ does not quite suit Mr Hudson’s genius.”
