Adults and older teens who value well-crafted literary fiction, including historical and California fiction, appreciate Let No One Enter. The following topics and more are encompassed in its pages: immigrant assimilation, small-town relationships, teaching profession, high school culture, bullying, adult singles life, boarding house life, male-female relationships in early twentieth-century America, life during the Great Depression, 1930s culture and art, and Northern California, including Mendocino County communities.

This posthumous novel is by Glenn A. Reed, former English department chair and professor emeritus at San Jose State University and a Stanford University alumnus. Dr. Reed began his career in Mendocino County, teaching citizenship classes and high school English in the Pacific Coast community of Fort Bragg, California, which was then a small, primarily logging town of Azoreans, Finns, Germans, Italians, the Pomo, and others.
