Industry Reviews
"A collection of vivid, engaging profiles written over the past decade by New Yorker staff writer Orlean (THE ORCHID THIEF, 1999)."
Kirkus Reviews (11/01/2000)

"I happened to read this book in Southeast Asia, a place where I had never before traveled and where I was overwhelmed by seeing things new. Reading Orlean's stories was a similar pleasure. She makes her subjects and the places they inhabit seem utterly new as well as noble, sad and loopy."
New York Times - Blaine Harden (01/28/2001)

"[O]rleans's profiles are among the best in the business."
Entertainment Weekly - Karen Valby

"All of the selections...glow with the author's keen observations and finely crafted prose."
