Editorial Reviews:

Review:

"Much as I admire Christensen for refusing to neatly solve Claudia's problems, and for making her skeptical of the monied sleekness that increasingly passes for culture in downtown New York, her portrait of an inebriated bumbler often verges on cruelty. Just when you think Claudia couldn't sink any lower, there's one more abusive guy/wicked hangover/work-world insult to push her under. You wish Christensen would be generous enough to offer a hand and yank her girl partway out of the gutter."

Review:

"A likable debut novel....Jolly, rollicking fun, told with good humor and easy wit."

Kirkus, 05/01/1999
