Recenzii

"Brian Doyle remains stubbornly a writer’s writer…a Townes Van Zandt of essayists, known by those in the know. For those of us in the know, the appearance of a new Brian Doyle essay is a mini-event, the first name you turn to in the table of contents, the first click on a literary web site...."
—The Iowa Review

"When Brian Doyle blurs the line between prose and poetry, he honors both, and when he blurs the line between children and animals, he honors both as well. In his universe, language is too wild to be confined to a single genre, just as living things (human and otherwise) are too wild to be confined to separate niches. Doyle makes us feel the aliveness of all of the above—words, newts, hummingbirds, infants, teenagers—in essays as fervent as prayers."   —Anne Fadiman, author of The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down
