Reviews

"Unflinching and uncompromising, complex atthe same time they seem to unfold naturally andsimply....Miraculous." --Ann Beattie "A superb collection...a laureate of romantic loneliness." --"The New York Times Book Review" "One soars on the updrafts of his brilliance to a special kind of literary high." --"The San Diego Union-Tribune" "Soft-spoken in his prose and terrifyingly accurate in his dialogue, Yates renders his characters with such authenticity that you hardly realize what he's done." --"The Boston Globe" "Keenly insightful, brutally honest...delivering a swift kick to the heart." --"The Denver Post" "Evoking entire worlds in a few words....[An] A." --"Entertainment Weekly"
