''A tour de force...full of wit, surprises and intrigue...We can imagine Jane Austen reading MISS MARJORIBANKS with enjoyment and approval in the Elysian Fields'' - Q. D. Leavis. Leavisdeclared Oliphant''s heroine Lucilla to be the missing link in Victorian literature between Jane Austen''s Emma and George Eliot''s Dorothea Brook and ''more entertaining, more impressive and more likeable than either''.
