"Describes with delicious humor and seriousness the blessing that emanates from a simple "old maid" full of life, true to life, exciting and in - a Christian spirit. Absolutely to be recommended." (literature report F. Theol.)

When we had read the story to the end, we turned the book over and read it again from beginning to end with equal pleasure. Nowadays many a work is awarded prizes, of which one does not quite know how it came to this honor, "Greten Waschen" certainly deserved it. The fine humor that permeates the whole thing is delicious, the life in the small town is described deliciously, the people who meet us in it are most delicious. On the other hand, there is no lack of wonderfully moving, serious scenes. Bu the inclined on Reader see for yourself. He will find that we have said too little rather than too much in praise of the book." (Rostock Gazette.)
