"If nothing else, i think my inability to put this down - even whilst in the midst of adjusting to life in a new country - shows that Díaz is an unapologetically seductive narrator. The rhythm of his work, so interspersed with humor and tragedy, interlaces you, the reader, in a delicate dance that is bordering on obsession and fear. I'm utterly entranced." — Jan 19, 2013 02:42pm

Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.”
