From New York Review Books

Belchamber Howard Sturgis was close friends with Henry James and Edith Wharton. "More Jamesian than the Master in hinting at melodrama yet keeping it at arm's length, Sturgis is an absolute modern in stirring up tensions on behalf of one of the quietest heroes in British fiction." —The New Republic
