About the Authors
  • This book reprints contemporaneous reviews of Ellen Glasgow's books as they were published between 1897 and 1943. Book reviews, originally printed in newspapers and other periodicals in the USA and in England, tell the story of Glasgow's critical reception during her long and productive career. Nineteen novels as well as a volume of poetry, one of her short stories, and one of criticism, were published during her lifetime. Her first book, published anonymously in 1897, elicited much attention when it was revealed that the author was a young Richmond woman. By the time of the 1943 publication of her volume of literary criticism, A Certain Measure, she was a much-respected and much-honoured author, winner of a Pulitzer Prize and other awards.

    • Useful reference tool to find out how people saw Ellen Glasgow while she was writing
    • Ellen Glasgow is up and coming due to the increased popularity of feminism etc. Not much on her and people are bound to be interested in such a reference book
    • Often reviews are where literary criticism starts
