We have long admired Miss Wilkins as one of the most powerful, original, and profound writers of America; but we are bound to say that "Pembroke" is entitled to a higher distinction than the critics have awarded to Miss Wilkins's earlier productions. As a picture of New England life and character, as a story of such surpassing interest that he who begins is compelled to finish it, as a work of art without a fault or a deficiency, we cannot see how it could possibly be improved. — N. Y. Sun. The simplicity, purity, and quaintness of these stories set them apart in a niche of distinction where they have no rivals. — Literary World, Boston. Nowhere are there to be found such faithful, delicately drawn, sympathetic, tenderly humorous pictures. — N. Y. Tribute. The charm of Miss Wilkins's stories is in her intimate acquaintance and comprehension of humble life, and the sweet human interest she feels and makes her readers partake of, in the simple, common, homely people she draws. — Springfield Republican.
