Prominent New Zealand author Janet Frame once said, "O. E. Middleton is a fine writer ... He's the only NZ writer who has made me weep over a story — one called The Stone in a volume of that title."[3] Middleton was the recipient of several awards, including the Hubert Church Award and the 2006 Janet Frame Literary Award. His Selected Stories shared first prize for Fiction in the New Zealand Book Awards in 1976.
A plaque featuring a quote from Middleton's 1970 Notebook was unveiled in February 2022 as part of the Dunedin Writer's Walk.[4]
