“This book was a real delight--fast and funny and pure New York. Unlubricated has only one flaw: it ends.” (Steve Kluger, author of Almost Like Being in Love and Last Days of Summer)

“[Nersesian] knows his territory intimately and paces the escalating chaos with a precision that would do Wodehouse proud.” (Time Out New York)

“Nersesian makes us eager to see what happens when the curtain finally rises.” (New York Times Book Review)

“A pitch-perfect approximation of the New York artistic life.” (Entertainment Weekly)
