“Mr Masters’s novel is put down with mingled feelings. It has many faults, but it has quite as many virtues. There is so much to the book that it leaps into the mind to advise the author to write novels henceforth and forevermore and let poetry rest.”

“We are in the habit of looking to Mr Masters for clear-cut character drawing and for sympathetic, if sometimes ironic, understanding of the motives of men but we have often felt regretfully, that he seemed to be too much interested in the morbid side of human nature. ‘Mitch Miller’ comes as a grateful answer to that doubt.” Marguerite Fellows
