Customer Reviews

A delight

In an era when novels usually deliver sex, cruelty, and violence in blunt and brutal prose, it's a pleasure to read this fluent, allusive, witty, and thoroughly enjoyable prose about sex, cruelty, and violence. George Stade blends a realistically low estimate of human aspirations with an energizing enthusiasm for enjoying them, and it's impossible not to enjoy them along with him.
