Industry Reviews
"'Allan Stein' is gorgeously written, but it's a host of other things as well: smart, brave, funny, and sexy. It's the kind of novel that makes you glad that you are alive and reading. It makes you glad Matthew Stadler is alive and writing."
promotional materials - Peter Cameron

"Matthew Stadler is among the foremost gifted, vigorous, and original novelists of our time. His new novel, 'Allan Stein', is as shapely as Henry James...and far outdoes Nabokov in erotic realism."
promotional materials - Guy Davenport

"Often the Stein material seems merely schematic, a plot-motivating pretext given undue prominence and a symbolic weight it cannot really bear, making a mild disappointment of this otherwise thoughtful and intelligent novel."
Times Literary Supplement - Christopher Taylor (04/23/1999)
