Dread (New American Fiction Series, No 16)

Description

Comments on Dread and Robert Steiner's writing: "[Dread] is like to prove a major event ... I cannot help but reiterate my enthusiasm for this latest novel, so superbly rich and ironic, dramatic and large of vision." —John Hawkes "Steiner is a rare sort of writer ... a kind of poet among novelists, intensely lyrical, highly intelligence, a shrewd and elegant craftsman." —Robert Coover "A hyperrealistic talent that eroticizes everything. Objects of desire are obscure, casting spells — an artist who knows so well how to balance them on burning quicksand." —L'Express (France) "Steiner's prose is taut, his imagery — at its best — shocking and original. He makes the world tilt, provides a new way of seeing." —North American Review
