Review

"Roth is a living master" (New York Review of Books)

"When She Was Good, both its sustained theme and its detail work, is a step above most recent novels... Roth is a serious writer, willing to turn his face against fashion and the expected, and to take improbable chances'" (New York Times)

"High, careful tragedy, nasty as life, and Roth emerges...as a Dreiser who can write!" (Stanley Elkin)

"Compassion mingles with horror in a superb portrayal of a young woman's obsession with moral rectitude" (Saturday Review)
