the Washington Post - Marie Arana
…a Collision Of Two Eccentric Souls That Grows With Mesmerizing Intensity. This Is A Richly Intellectual Novel That Will Resemble Nothing You've Ever Encountered. Despite Its Nods To Dostoyevsky And Rohmer, And For All The References To Well-worn Landmarks Of A Familiar City, It Is An Original To The Core.
