Críticas

"One of the most exhilarating essayists alive: occasionally raunchy but always full of high humor, casually erudite, animated by an original and constantly surprising turn of mind." --Andrew Ferguson," The American Spectator"
"Not many [authors] are worth dropping everything you're doing to read his or her new book. One of the few who makes it worthwhile is Florence King...Her essays might make you angry, but they'll also make you laugh." --Jay Strafford," Richmond News-Leader"
"King is exactly on target...One of the few contemporary American essayists of sufficient pungency and wit as to be almost always worth reading." --Jonathan Yardley," Washington Post Book World"
"To say that Florence King doesn't suffer fools gladly is an understatement akin to suggesting that Fred Astaire could maneuver quite nicely on the dance floor." --Joanne Kaufman," People"
