Review Quotes:
"Fonseca's voice is rich with irony, subtle humor and intelligence."--Publishers Weekly
"The best thing in the work of Rubem Fonseca is not knowing where he's going to take us. Every time I start a book of his it's as if I answered a phone call in the middle of the night: 'Hi, it's me. You're not going to believe what's happening.' Well, maybe not at first, but soon I'm believing everything. His writing performs miracles, it's mysterious. Each of his books is not only a worthwhile journey: it's a journey in some way necessary."--Thomas Pynchon "Fonseca . . . tells a broader story about Brazil."--Benjamin Lytal
