Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"At once a bittersweet love story, a wickedly funny novel of manners and an unsentimental meditation on mortality and the nuclear abyss. Always witty--and still profound--the book paints a truthful picture of our dreadful, comic times." --"Vanity Fair" "A splendid achievement, equally convincing in its exhilaration and its sadness." --"The New York Times" "The great California novel has been written in verse (and why not?): The Golden Gate gives great joy." --Gore Vidal " At once a bittersweet love story, a wickedly funny novel of manners and an unsentimental meditation on mortality and the nuclear abyss.
