Le critique littéraire Paul G. Socken(en) en fera la critique suivante : « Leonard Rosmarin's novel Getting Enough is a work of genius. The characters fairly jump off the page, they are so full of energy and life. Even the cover design imaginatively conveys the theme of repressed energy and stifled desire attempting to break out of the box of convention and hypocrisy. The work, coarse in language conveying a society that is struggling to find values and meaning, succeeds in resolving conflict through an ending that is at once realistic and uplifting. The author is to be commended for his great artistic talent and gifted imagination. »
