"No one in English, not even William Faulkner with his tales of Yoknapatawpha County, wrote stories like these....[Translator] J. G. Nichols succeeds magnificently in forging a style which has a lilt to it, allowing his prose to be as hard as flint when needed and to shine like the Sicilian sun for the rare lyrical passages."
Joseph Farrell, Times Literary Supplement, 09/12/2003
