Editorial Reviews

"For its technical brilliance, its unremitting intelligence, for the rich complexity of the homologies and analogies between its systems and the fearful times we live in, Lookout Cartridge is the rarest kind of achievement." (George Stade, The New York Times Book Review)

"Spectacular, richly imagined . . . an excruciatingly difficult book to put down." (The Cleveland Plain Dealer
