Recenzii

“Vlautin’s coiled, poetically matter-of-fact prose calls to mind S.E.Hinton.” — Publishers Weekly
“If there’s any justice, anywhere, The Motel Life will be widely read and widely admired.” — Booklist
“Both heartbreaking and inspirational…written…with a simple hypnotic tone that seems as if it was grown in the Reno heat.” — Associated Press ASAP
“Slighter than Carver, less puerile than Bukowski, Vlautin…manages to lay claim to the same blearyeyed territory, and…to make it new.” — New York Times Book Review, EDITOR'S CHOICE
“A natural for the bigscreen and in fact Babel and 21 Grams writer Guillermo Arriaga has bought the film rights…” — Salt Lake City Tribune
“The furthest Vlautin’s men can move is in circles, shackled to their dysfunctions and their meager paychecks…” — San Francisco Weekly
“I’m floored…This book feel so damn real, so powerful, so much like life, even if it’s not yours.” — Jonathan Zwickel, The Stranger
