"The editing is sensitive and meticulous. An incisive introduction provides a helpful overview of the verse, and comprehensive but concise footnotes bear in mind the needs of both the general and the specialist reader. The collection is useful in underscoring the complex nature of Pardo Bazán's work as a whole." (Bulletin of Hispanic Studies, Vol. LXXIV, No. 4, October 1997) " . . . an intimate portrait of this much-admired writer." (British Bulletin of Publications on Latin America, the Caribbean, Portugal and Spain, No. 97, October 1997)
