Revue de presse :
"Delightful. Crome Yellow is witty, worldly and poetic" (The Times)
"I find it hard to keep my enthusiasm for Crome Yellow within decent bounds. It is at once irresistibly funny and shrewd in its criticisms of daily life" (Daily Express)
"With a strong, delightful and admirable talent for caricature, Huxley is at his entertaining best in his grimaces at modern movements and at the ridiculous earnestness of the young" (Observer)
"The tone of Huxley's story matches the title: it is a rich, full yellow which suggests the exhilarating glow of summer" (Times Literary Supplement)
