Review:
"In many ways, Ortese is a 19th century writer: You hear echoes of her beloved Poe and Stevenson, and of Knut Hamsun; you may be reminded, too, of Machado de Asis and our contemporary, Miroslav Holub....Hers isn't the only kind of real literature there is, but it is real literature, which is an endangered species."
Katherine McNamara, Los Angeles Times Book Review, 08/25/1996
Review:"[D]eliciously eerie, enigmatic, and resonant symbolic fictions....Enchanting stuff..."
Kirkus, 05/15/1998
