Industry Reviews "Di Piero's very contemporary critical sense of the problematics of any language use has thus its local and contingent origins. We might be tempted, in consequence, to dismiss his radical skepticism, his distaste for and--even while he practices a version of it--rejection of the prevailing idiom of American postmodernism. But to do so out of hand would be to lose, whether or not we always agree with him, one of the most bracing critical intelligences now at work in our national scene-of-writing." Boston Book Review - Warner Berthoff (06/19/1996)
"This astonishing book, by one of the best and most under-recognized writers of our time, is among the finest collections of essays I have read in many years." advertisement - Wendy Lesser
