Recenzii
"We are soon held by the vividness of the picture she draws and in a little while we find ourselves caring really intensely what becomes of them all."—Saturday Review of Literature
"Second Hoeing takes on the stature of a powerful proletarian drama of the American soil, with children the main protagonists upon whom the bitter impact of economic struggle is spent."—New York Times
"An honest, firmly wrought story."—Current History
