Anmeldelser
«Twenty-one distinguished stories, confirming Huxley's stature as one of the giants of modern English prose and of social commentary in our time. A very good book.»
V. S. Pritchett
«These stories ... reveal in snatches the real nature of his genius, which is essentially discursive, argumentative, analytical, and omnivorous.... [He is] always stimulating because of the sharp inquiring intellect at work, moving with equal liveliness to pinpoint an absurdity of character, as in `Chawdron,' or to feast on the pleasure of Italian life and painting.»
Manchester Guardian
«A great pleasure to read.»
