Critics praised the novel for its understanding of feminine psychology. Here are some “quotes” from the book: — Men have so much more time for thinking. They have sort of time between times, what a woman never has.

Whale ver goes wrong downtown the dames are expected to be able to iron' it out before dinner is served. Lots of times you have to pretend to join a parade in which you’re not really interested in order to get where you're going. Men are good about Telling the World, but pretty often some woman whispered it to him first. There’s nobody who gets such wonderful dark rings under their eyes like the Irish.
