Ormsby, Eric.  "Robert Bridges's New Cadence."  New Criterion 25.8 (April 2007): 15.

Notes that de la Mare regarded Bridges as "not a great poet, but a 'real' one, and 'sure to live.'  Ormsby says that this is not the case.  Valuable for de la Mare's attitude to the poetry of his day.

Ormsby, Eric.  "The Kingdom of Never-to-Be."  New Criterion 26.8 (April 2008): 4-8.

"De la Mare distrusted words perhaps as much as he delighted in them but he too kept his word."  " . . in some bizarre way they weren't written for us in the first place but instead for those hidden listeners at 'the edge of all the ages.' Odder things have happened in the Kingdom of Never-to-Be."

Towsey, David.  "Blind Lust: Walter de la Mare and Short Story Ideology."  Oxford Literary Review 26 (2004): 101-15.

De la Mare's ideology to interpret the idea behind the written words in short stories made him search for new reading material.  He believed in giving his readers a true access of vision to subject of his story.  His ideology of supporting hermeneutical location  through the principle of ocular completion takes shape in his story "The Green House."  He tried to explain that interpretation of the work takes place under the condition that it will bring clarity to the reader.

Tvaruzka, Kathryn.  "Queen Mab: Musical Verses, Vol. III."  School Library Journal 54.1 (Jan. 2008): 72-81.
