Reviews
"The subject of this book might be that brief eloquence between the fantasies of a dream-bound child and his implementing those through charm, sexuality, his wits. . . . This work of principled sweep and great observational power also champions the centrality of Art as a governing quest. It offers this view with a faith that must recall Proust's life project, his attempt to hold all of time, its characters at synchronous ages, all its warring textures, in one head, one work." -from the Introduction byAllan Gurganus, "The subject of this book might be that brief eloquence between the fantasies of a dream-bound child and his implementing those through charm, sexuality, his wits. . . .
