"The humor in the stories, as well as their thrill of realism, comes from a Nabokovian precision of observation and transformation of plain experience into enchanting prose."--Todd Crespi, "Los Angeles Times Book Review"
"A compelling stylist, well translated, with passages of stunning imagery in virtually every story."--"Kirkus Reviews"
"Mr. Rosenthal's translation is top-flight and does justice to some of the best prose that has been written in Spain in the modern era."--Gregory Rabassa, "The New York Times"
"Timesof the Doves" and "Camellia Street," also by Merce Rodoreda, are available from Graywolf Press."
