Review
Lifted from obscurity, this text is delightfully revisited by Kaylor, whose admiration for this author is evident throughout his introduction. [...] Although one might joke about reading introductions last, this is an exception, since so much is added to the reading of the original text, made more poignant by Kaylor's intricate description of Reid's life, not to mention his thorough explanatory notes. -- English Literature in Transition, March 22, 2008
This new edition from the American small press Valancourt Books is scholarly, meticulous and comprehensive, with an introduction by its editor Michael Matthew Kaylor, in which the case for Reid's literary rehabilitation and canonicity is energetically rehearsed. Nonetheless...The Garden God still feels dangerously overheated, its prose filled with the quality of overripe fruit - sensual and sweet, but with the promise of corruption underneath. -- Times Literary Supplement, September 14, 2007
