“Albert Rivero’s edition [of Pamela] reproduces the text of the first edition of the novel faithfully, even down to the expressive variation in the length of the dashes interruptive and elliptical; and his introduction expertly navigates complex sequences of publication, controversy, and textual revision.”
~ Karen O’Brien, The Times Literary Supplement, January 11, 2013
