Reviews
Ralph Rugoff delights his readers with his customarily dizzying range and perennially deft sensibility but also with something more unusual, a real sense of discretion. -- Lawrence Weschler, New Yorker staff writer
As millenarian Western time loops, Ralph Rugoff presents a carnival of New World wonders: yesterday and tomorrow today. -- Jon Savage, author of England's Dreaming: Anarchy, Sex Pistols, Punk Rock and Beyond
Ralph Rugoff gives us the critic as expert tracker, with brilliant flair for the vivid scene. By turns funny and alarming, affectionate and macabre, his writing is filled with thoughtful asides on the way we live now. -- Marina Warner, author of From the Beast to the Blonde and Managing Monsters
