Editorial Reviews:

Review:

"...[O]scillates between the straightforward focus of the professor or literary critic immersed in textual exegesis and the self-induced (at times self-indulgent) flights of the poet's fancy. Among the more engaging entries are those tracing the influence of Spanish and Latin-American fiction on Mr. Barth's own work, and one investigating the intellectual and social sources and meanings of minimalism as a major 20th-century genre."

Andy Brumer, New York Times Book Review, 08/27/1995

Review:

"Its contents are patently the work of a supremely curious and unflagingly enthusaistic reader, equally at home as lover, practitioner or propagator of literature....What is innate in Barth and delighfully displayed in 'Further Fridays' is that most seductive trait of the Americanized Teutonic intellect: unaffected love of learning, lightly worn."

Carey Harrison, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, 08/20/1995
