--Tahir Shah
"A bold adventure and . . . very funny."
--Gail Godwin
"Fascinating . . . It tells a long and winding tale with laugh-out-loud, kick-you-in-the-gut humor."
--Honor Moore
"With her characteristic insight and wit, Lisa Alther . . . demonstrates that . . . the journey is clearly as worthwhile as the desired destination."
--Wayne Winkler
