Reviews
"The Czech Cioran..." - Andrei Codrescu
"Gal's aphorisms combine incisive question-raising and gently troubling images involving Time, God... and existential self-awareness." -Antioch Review
"Gal is a phenomenon unto himself: a purveyor of neurotic philosophy encapsulated in elliptical portents and epifragmentals, the content of which is at all odds with their length." - Joshua Cohen
