Reviews

[Steve Carter]

Fascinating novel of political, cultural, and natural forces.
Brilliant. Like nothing I have ever read, back then or currently.
Flicker is also beyond wonderful.
So happy to have discovered these novels.
Happened upon Flicker library stack browsing in Long Island.

I couldn’t figure out if this was actually meant to be a play or if it was a novel disguised as a play. It would be a very ambitious production! But one I’d like to see. A lot of crazy interesting stuff going on.
