Industry Reviews "The world these people share, teeming with tastes, smells, fleshly pleasures and perils, aphrodisiacs, family histories, local customs..., and fancies of the most extravagant sort, opens like a riotous modern Eden, and...offers enough magic-realism miracles to buoy the dourest heart [but] Lindsay makes you pay for every thrill of lust and grace." Kirkus Reviews (10/15/2000)
