Hugh Walpole recommends
Thunder on the Left (1925)
Christopher Morley
"It is personal to every reader, it will become for every one a reflection of himself. I fancy that here, as always where work is fine and true, the author has created something not as he would but as he must, and here an interpreter of a world more wonderful than he himself knows."
The Purple Cloud (1901)
M P Shiel
"A flaming genius! At his best he is not to be touched, because there is no one else like him."
