The Speaker.—'Mrs. Lynn Linton commands the respect of her readers and critics. Her new story, In Haste and at Leisure, is as powerful a piece of writing as any that we owe to her pen.'
The St. James's Budget.—'A thorough mistress of English, Mrs. Lynn Linton uses the weapons of knowledge and ridicule, of sarcasm and logic, with powerful effect; the shallow pretences of the "New Woman" are ruthlessly torn aside.'
The Literary World.—'Whatever its exaggerations may be, In Haste and at Leisure remains a notable achievement. It has given us pleasure, and we can recommend it with confidence.'
The Court Journal.—'The book is a long but brilliant homily and series of object-lessons against the folly and immorality of the modern craze of the most advanced women, who rail against men, marriage, and maternity. The book is immensely powerful, and intensely interesting.'
The Daily Graphic.—'It is an interesting story, while it is the most tremendous all-round cannonade to which the fair emancipated have been subjected.'
The World.—'It is clever, and well written.'
The Graphic.—'It is thoroughly interesting, and it is full of passages that almost irresistibly tempt quotation.'
The St. James's Gazette.—'It is a novel that ought to be, and will be, widely read and enjoyed.'
The Globe.—'It is impossible not to recognise and acknowledge its great literary merit.'
The Glasgow Herald.—'In Haste and at Leisure is a striking and even brilliant novel.'
The Manchester Courier.—'In this cruelly scientific analyses of the "New Woman," Mrs. Lynn Linton writes with all the bitterness of Dean Swift. The book is one of remarkable power.'
