Industry Reviews "[An] arresting collection....Hernandez's...uniquely personal, willfully elusive stories are very much worth reading." Kirkus Reviews (06/15/2002)
"Esther Allen, whom I've learned to trust as a translator..., ought to be thanked for this fine collection of two novellas and four stories....Felisberto is kin [to Kafka] when it comes to the eerie and the uncanny, but his is a joyful, not a terrifying, disposition. He appears to laugh at his own condition, or at least to indulge in its jazzy rhythms without much anxiety." Nation - Ilan Stavans (10/07/2002)
