Industry Reviews
"In an age of 15-minute foghorn fame, Theroux's voice is a silver trumpet. To neglect it is to miss out on a determining strain of that strong music Whitman would insist validated America."
Publisher's Catalog - James McCourt
"[Theroux] has found an ideal format in which to display his vast and idiosyncratic knowledge of the world....The three essays are not narrative in the traditional sense. They do not demand that we follow an argument or a developing line, only that we live in the moment, allowing the bracing and ephemeral ripples of a supple intelligence to wash over us."
Washington Post Book World - Lynne Sharon Schwartz (07/14/1996)
"...Theroux is no literary greenhorn. There are a number of thoughtful observations and compelling juxtapositions. And his research is humblingly prodigious."
McCourt
