An excerpt from The New Review, volume 3, 1890: " embodies Henry James' views of the stage, and, as might be expected, they are not enthusiastic. He belittles the actor's calling with a long series of subtle sarcasms, and Miriam is apparently meant to show how narrow is the mental horizon, and how intense the egotism, of histrionic genius. Yet she is full of power and charm. I don't remember any book of Mr. James's in which his touch is so sure, and his grip of character so strong. As a rule he is exquisitely indefinite. "You are vague," says a lady in this novel to a young man who is fascinating but abstracted. Mr. James is generally vague, and that is why very little of his writing remains in your memory. But I am not likely to forget Miriam Rooth, who has more brains than the rest of her creator's portraits.

"Yet a great fund of social observation is lavished on all of them, and you cannot read this book without an intellectual pleasure which is keen, if it is not permanent."
