Recenzii

'Ford's taut, compelling prose is as piercingly clear as a police siren. No other storyteller writes about the alienated and uncommitted with such mastery'
'The book brings to mind cinematic versions of the romance of urban dereliction - the look of Paris, Texas for example ... You want Wim Wenders to make the movie, but you want Bogart and Bacall to be in it'
'His prose has a taut, cinematic quality that bathes his story with the same hot, mercilessly white light that scorches Mexico'

'Ford is a masterful writer'
