From the New York Times, March 22, 1936 review:
'Very fragile and brief, and written with a kind of breathless lyricism, "The Hill" is a first novel of considerable originality. For some tastes it may be too sensitive and fine-spun, but it does manage to distill naked emotion in fresh, subtle prose.'
