Andrei Codrescu

A happy surprise, this little elegant book about venery and scrutability and foreignness . . . [T]he poise of the style and the epigrammatic posture bring a less dour Edward Dahlberg, or Cyril Connolly, or even Catullus, to mind. KIRKUS REVIEWS

This pleasingly off-center novella . . . the book's wealth of serious fun. PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY
