Review: 'If I were to name the three American books which have the possibility of a long, long life, I would say at once 'The Scarlet Letter', 'Huckleberry Finn', and 'The Country of the Pointed Firs'. I can think of no others that confront time and change so serenely. The latter book seems to me fairly to shine with the reflection of its long, joyous future. It is so tightly, yet so lightly built, so little unencumbered with materialism...I like to think with pleasure of what a sense of rich discovery the young student of American literature in the far distant years to come will take this book up and say, 'A masterpiece,' as proudly as if he himself had made it.'
