Recensione:

A vivid, revelatory collection of stories, poetry and essays. . . . Shot through with exuberance, vitality and curiosity. . . . It undoubtedly will become a crucial supplement to mainstream literary offerings.-Diana Abu-Jaber, The Miami Herald

"A literary buffet with treats so exquisitely sculpted that Martha Stewart would grimace with envy....Compelling to the very end." -Kirkus Reviews

"Promises to be a book worth seeking out in future editions. . . . [Has] the kind of edge that the first few Pushcart Prize collections had. . . . Important." -Bryce Mulligan, Chicago Tribune
