Reviews for The Limits of Vision

...unique, a ravishing product of pure imagination. -The New Statesman The Limits of Vision is an immensely intelligent and delightful novel that constantly jumps and turns through level after level of humour and invention. It is a dance of a book...dense with wit and surprise...a great pleasure. -Stephen Dobyns in The New York Times Weird, hilarious, yet elegantly disciplined, here's a hybrid of satire, fable and reportage. Jaded readers will treasure it. -The Daily Mail
