In a Smithsonian Magazine article Gioia Diliberto writes: "Speaking through a Ouija board operated by Pearl Lenore Curran a St. Louis housewife of limited education Patience Worth was nothing short of a national phenomenon in the early years of the 20th century. Though her works are virtually forgotten today the prestigious Braithwaite anthology listed five of her poems among the nation's best published in 1917 and the New York Times hailed her first novel as a 'feat of literary composition.' Her output was stunning. In addition to seven books she produced voluminous poetry short stories plays and reams of sparkling conversation-nearly four million words between 1913 and 1937.".
