"Here is the proverbial ‘fear and trembling’ become an instrument of exploration, reflection. A writer’s search for meaning and purpose, for a secure sense of identity, told clearly, compellingly, will surely prompt in grateful readers the high compliment of a similar intensity of moral introspection." —Robert Coles, author of The Mind's Fate: A Psychiatrist Looks At His Profession.
"This voluptuously rendered account of a life lived with . . . unbounded curiosity . . . is among the most wonderful of memoirs I have ever read." —Jamaica Kincaid, author of Lucy
"Formally daring, ruthlessly honest, and written in limpid, expressive prose, [this book] explodes the clichés and conventions of most non-fiction." —Siri Hustvedt, author of What I Loved
"So rich in incident, so vividly told, and often so buoyantly funny, Agee’s miraculous book soars beyond glib classification." —Erik Wensberg, co-author of Modern American Usage
"This book chronicles a harrowing journey into . . . a hell from which many people never return, let alone go on to describe [in] such lucid, poetic realism." —Peter Fenner, author of The Edge Of Certainty
"An unclassifiable work, hugely ambitious, exasperatingly self-conscious, but also, at its best, piercingly eloquent and intelligent. This is no ordinary memoir . . ." —Morris Dickstein
