Rich in minor portraits of the 'underworld' where talent abounded….
Meyers is especially lively and penetrating on Mansfield's changing
relations with [D. H. and Frieda] Lawrence and the well-known
outbursts of Lawrence's rages and returns to affection.
*The New Yorker*
The chief strength of Dr. Meyers's valuable book… is the panoramic
view that he takes of literary history.
