Reviews

"[Porter's] stories rank among the best in American literature." -- The Guardian

"Miss Porter's best stories are so transparent that they disappear as stories, as style, as literature, while leaving the humanity of their pictures wordlessly intact." -- New York Review of Books

"Few writers in America or anywhere else have matched [Porter's] powers of deep poetic concentration, her intelligence, her responsiveness to the inner life of her characters, her sharp sense of the pressing forces of history, nationality, and social atmosphere." -- New Republic

"Katherine Anne Porter moves in the illustrious company headed by Hawthorne, Flaubert, and Henry James."
-- Saturday Review
