Our pre-eminent social realist...trains his all-seeing eye on the institution of the American university. . . . Wolfe's rhapsodic prose style finds its perfect target in academia's beer-soaked bacchanals. "Henry Alford, Newsday"
Wolfe is one of the greatest literary stylists and social observers of our much observed postmodern era. . . . A rich, wise, absorbing, and irresistible novel. "Lev Grossman, Time"
Tom Wolfe has scored a slam dunk with his...attention to style, the rule-bending punctuation, the deftness of slang dialogue, and that biting satire. "Steve Garbarino, New York Post"
Wolfe's dialogue is some of the finest in literature, not just fast but deep. He hears the cacophony of our modern lives. "Susan Salter Reynolds, Los Angeles Times"
[A] hilarious, exclamation-point filled novel. "John Freeman, Time Out New York"
Brilliant . . . I couldn't stop reading it. . . . Tom Wolfe can make words dance and sing and perform circus tricks, he can make the reader sigh with pleasure. "Michael Dirda, The Washington Post"
A lot of fun . . . Hilarious. "Francine Prose, Los Angeles Times Book Review"
Tom Wolfe remains a peerless satirist. Alone among our fiction writers he is actively writing the human comedy, American-style, on a grand Dickensian scale. "David Lehman, Bloomberg News"
Scathingly clear-eyed, often very funny take on college life. "Robert Siegel, NPR, All Things Considered"
Dazzingly vivid . . . Tom Wolfe has served up another of his broadly entertaining novels. "Adam Begley, The New York Observer"
His most fully realized and hands-down funniest work of fiction. "Patrick Beach, Austin American-Statesman"
Captivating . . . Sit back and enjoy the ride. "Tom Walker, The Denver Post"
Tom Wolfe is America's greatest living novelist. "Joseph Bottum, The Weekly Standard"
Rollicking . . . Just as Americans continue to read "A Farewell to Arms "or "The Great Gatsb"y, we'll be reading "I Am Charlotte Simmons" for many years. . . . Professors like to complain that they get a year older every fall, while students always remain the same. Add "I Am Charlotte Simmons" to that magic circle of campus phenomena unlikely to age. "Carlin Romano, The Philadelphia Inquirer""
