|
| Ray Lewis White, editor of "The Achievement of Sherwood Anderson" stated that "In only one case were critics of Anderson's later work seriously wrong in their judgment. Death in the Woods (1933), Anderson's last collection of short stories, contains works that are among our finest short fiction...Perhaps because these were stories and not extended writing, Anderson recaptured the tender charm of Winesburg, Ohio, The Triumph of the Egg, and Horses and Men."
