Review:
"[] meaty collection....Davenport clearly belongs to the exilic tradition in American writing that locates authenticity as contact with the elder, the civilized, the ancestral, the distinguished, the long discussed....While Davenport seems to want to be writing about Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer and the sweetness and plumbing of male friendships, he insists his Huck and Tom must bathe naked in the Baltic, chatting about Werner Heisenberg in Danish."
Robert Kelly, Bookforum, Fall 2003
Review:"[W]hat these stories do...is encourage us to question what kind of world we have built for ourselves....In his own fiction, Davenport has succeeded in...finding new ways to dramatize one, suggestive question: What if we were free? In their language and form, intelligence and art, his stories remain some of our most eloquent, individual, and lasting answers to that inexhaustible question."
Wyatt Mason, Harper's, April 2004
