Review
"Jim Powers was a great old Irish master who God plopped down in Minnesota as a joke, a dark wit on the prairie, and he left behind a small satchel of unforgettable writing." -- Garrison Keillor
"There is not a misplaced comma, not a wrong word...Powers set up his sentences to explode at the end, so that there are marvelous little internal combustions going off like firecrackers all over the page." -- Donna Tartt, Harpers"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
