"A thing of wonder,
unlike anything in
our
literature.
No novel since
Confederacy of Dunces
has done such justice
to New Orleans."
--Donald Harington
Recipient of the Oxford-
American Lifetime
Achievement
Award
"Louis Maistros has
written a lyrical,
complex, and
brave novel
that
takes enormous
risks and pulls
them
all off.
-- Peter
Straub
