- 2004, Kelly Hurley, The Gothic Body: Sexuality, Materialism, and Degeneration at the Fin de Siècle:
- The novel does not seek to infuse these abominations with meaningfulness (the man-eating trees signify suchly; the giant crabs signify suchly): they simply exist, the disgusting products of a natural world both chaotic and fertile in expedient.

- You want to act like an ass I'll treat you suchly. Matilda, this is not the place, nor trust[sic] the time for you to be showing your ass.
