“Steve Katz comes off the loping forward rush of his latest masterful novel, Antonello’s Lion, with a collection of short pieces: acerbic, innovative, humorous, and above all, perversely engaging.”

— Rudy Wurlitzer

“Steve Katz’s comic genius is subversive. Readers beware. You may die laughing.”

—Walter Abish

 

“Steve Katz is an American treasure: a delirious imagination in a major stylist. His 2006 novel Antonello’s Lion, is an epic comic lament. Reading these stories you can imagine Flann O’Brien crossed with Nathanael West. No one has chronicled the impact of the women’s movement more vividly and with less bias. No one has performed more loving surgery on the international art scence.”

—Wendy Walker

“In my opinion, Steve Katz is the greatest living novelist in English, and the one most likely to keep our hearts and minds in good working order, to keep us truly human in a world where brainless tech-loving Moorlocks hog the sunshine, and

thoughtful, life-loving Eloi have been driven underground.”
