Review:
"In his fifth book MacLennan has gained a new mastery over the two strongest elements in his work: the storytellers and the self-explorer are one. The effect is virtually to double his stature. The Canadian novel takes a great stride forward."
"The Watch That Ends the Night is a novel of affirmation ... The vanity of human wishes, death itself, are part of the mystery to be loved ... I would not trade MacLennan for a legion of beatniks or a whole flotilla-full of angry young men."
