Industry Reviews
"[This] elegant, bleak, desolatingly sad first novella is in every sense [Martin's] most serious work to date....from the days of the Wild and Crazy Guy onward, Martin's humor has always been about people who do not realize they are absurd. In SHOPGIRL that sense of absurdity is larger and more encompassing--something closer to an existentialist idea of the absurd, of life as defined by a tragicomic absence of purpose."
Lanchester
"[A] witty, well-written and intelligent novella; its portrait of the strange moral values of Hollywood, however, raises some uncomfortable questions about the author's views on a number of issues ranging from women to happiness."
Times Literary Supplement - Aisling Foster (11/24/2000)
