"Brilliantly inventive, written with great flair and shows a deliciously comic and ironic sense of American realities."--Alfred Kazin
"The virtues of [Vizinczey's] style are those he finds in Hungarian poetry: the moody ferocity of a locked-up beast, and also a classic clarity and complete lack of self-indulgence."--Thomas D'Evelyn, Christian Science Monitor
"Shows where the true values lie--not in wealth or the rule of law but in that as yet inviolate sector where a man and woman make love. . . . I was entertained but also deeply moved: here is a novel set bang in the middle of our decadent, polluted, corrupt world that, in some curious way, breathes a kind of desperate hope."--Anthony Burgess, Punch (London)
"Bravo!"--Graham Greene
