Cr�ticas:

"Fowler is an expansive, lyrical, inventive writer." --The New York Times Book Review
"An invigorating blast of originality, wit and heart. . . . This irresistibly melodic debut novel about love in lower Manhattan resonates like a perfect pop song: You just want to revisit it over and over again. . . . The energy is infectious. . . A smash." --Los Angeles Times
"Refreshing. . . . A novel of depth and adeptness, with a fully realized main character and Technicolor phrases scattered on every page." --The Washington Post Book World
"Vibrant and original . . . all wit and charm. . . . A cynic's romance." --Orlando Sentinel
"An honest and entertaining love story; Nick Fowler writes with Nick Hornby's sense of humor and Dave Eggers' playfulness with form." --The Omaha Weekly Reader
"So what has changed since Hemingway and Fitzgerald and Cheever recorded the pressures and repression weighing down a sensitive middle-class man . . . ? As Fowler tells it, the pressures haven't changed much . . . His rueful, funny first novel is informed by a pretty irresistible delight in its own telling." --The New York Times Book Review
"New York and young love in a fresh, form-bending voice." --Austin American Statesman
"A superior stylist, Fowler's writing pulses like a quartz crystal. . . . Sad, hopeful and taut, A Thing (or Two) About Curtis and Camilla demonstrates that life is worth living because it is hard." --The Tallahassee Democrat
