↑  "[T]o many [students], especially some younger lesbian students for whom the coming out process has been relatively painless, The Well is an affront, an out-dated, unbelievable, ugly insult to their self-image and to their self-esteem."  Hopkins. Claudia Stillman Franks said in 1982 that "very few critics have ever given the novel itself high praise. On the contrary, they often point out that stylistically, the work is marred by inflated language and stilted dialogue" (125). Doan & Prosser state that in 1990s criticism "the persistent implication is that if Hall had only been a better writer, she might have been a better modernist and certainly a better lesbian". Terry Castle, summing up a 2001 collection of essays on The Well, notes that "[t]heir authors are all in varying degree ... quick to acknowledge their own frustrations with Hall's often monstrously overwrought parable" ("Afterword", 398).
↑  Doan & Prosser say that "[t]he novel continues to unsettle and provoke. Generations of feminists ... may have dismissed or celebrated the novel ... but they have never ignored it" (2). Castle refers to its "uncanny rhetorical power – a power unaffected by its manifest failures as a work of art – to activate readerly feeling ... Something in the very pathos of Stephen Gordon's torment ... provokes an exorbitant identification in us. Whoever we are, we tend to see ourselves in her." She also notes a "level of emotional seriousness and personal engagement one seldom sees" in criticism of The Well ("Afterword", 399–400).
