Rotten Reviews: Look Homeward, Angel by Thomas Wolfe

“It seems to be the great gift of Mr. Wolfe that everything is interesting, valuable, and significant to him. It must be confessed that he has just missed the greatest of gifts, that of being able to convey his interest to the ordinary reader.”

Basil Davenport, Saturday Review of Literature
