In 1952, Delmore Schwartz wrote of Testimonies: a triumph . . . drawn forward by lyric eloquence and the story's fascination, (the reader) discovers in the end that he has encountered in a new way the sphinx and the riddle of existence itself. Schwartz's imagination was fired by this sinister tale of love and death set in Wales.
