Recensione
"Brilliantly captures both the aspiration and self-loathing of the upwardly mobile American male" (Michael Arditti Independent)

"Giardina has an extraordinary gift for describing the eddies of power in what seem to be familiar relationships" (David Hare)
"I love men who can write about relationships as tenderly and honestly as Giardina does" (Julie Myerson)
"Smart... Compelling... Perfectly handled" (San Francisco Chronicle)
