"...the narrative momentum is so strong that most readers will probably finish the book in a few sittings. -- The Connecticut Post, 2/20/94 "Stevens spins a fantastic, entrancing tale, an entertaining, insightful and sometimes moving allegory about creating, performing, love and loss." -- Arkansas Demorcat Gazette 1/20/94 ...an astonishing triumph. An utterly compelling narrative that continually surprises, alive with precisely imagined details..." -- -The Boston Phoenix, 4/94
