Industry Reviews "Iyer is a master of the ironic detail....The author excels as well at what might be called 'snapshot exposition': the ability to capture in a few swift images the entire milieu in which he finds himself....Goes where most of us will not go and returns with the dire details." Kirkus Reviews (02/01/2004)
