Reviews

"Lish is still our Joyce, our Beckett, our most true modernist. Buy! Read! Listen up!"Kirkus Reviews "Gordon Lish, famous for all the wrong reasons, has written some of the most fascinating American fiction of the last ten years."Don DeLillo "Lish has produced a wealth of avant-garde prose, worthy of the pioneers of literary modernism. His writing represents the US answer to Samuel Beckett and Thomas Bernhard."The Guardian
