“A stupendous, spellbinding reading experience waiting to be had.”—Jonathan Lethem
“A valuable collection of excellent, often deeply disturbing stories.”—Kirkus Reviews
|
"Wilder is a novelist of morals. . . . They are answers found by individuals to the old problems of faith, hope, charity or love, art, duty, submission to one's fate . . . and hence they are relatively universal; they can be illustrated from the lives of any individuals, in any place, at any time since the beginning of time. . . . The characters in Wilder's novels and plays are looking for such answers."—Malcolm Cowley
|
“This anthology is almost obscenely entertaining . . . it is also a searching look at the dark underside of American reality, at an aspect of the human condition that both horrifies and fascinates us.
”—The Washington Post
