“Don’t miss the arch-decadent Enoch Soames and the fortunetelling A.V. Laider.” —Michael Dirda, Washington Post, List of 66 Favorite Books
“As a parodist, he is probably the finest in English.” —W.H. Auden
“The most faultless of my contemporaries…I prefer Seven Men to all his other books.” —Bertrand Russell
“Not even a good comedy is so rare as genuine satire, and when an example of the latter is produced some indulgence in superlatives may be excused. In the case of [Seven Men] it is difficult to restrain praise within the bounds of judgment, for its beneficent, limpid ridicule is an undiluted joy.” —The Spectator
