In the Washington Post Book World, Sven Birkerts called this exuberant novel a complex and gripping work of invention and confession . . . I understood again how the prose of a true writer can bring us to a world beyond. The book spans almost thirty years in the life of a fictional Paul Theroux, who moves through young bachelorhood in Africa, in and out of marriage, affairs, and employment, and between continents. It's a wry, worldly, erotic, and deeply moving account of one man's first half century - among the strongest things Theroux has ever written (New York Times Book Review).
