出版商概要
"This esoteric tale, peopled with dozens of quirky characters, draws you in and spits you out dazed and delighted with the journey." "This quirky and offbeat novel may well appeal to fans of Lisa Lutz's Spellman Files, also a little wacky and set in San Francisco." " . . . a rollicking romp through the caverns of Max's roller-coaster mind. Those seeking a conventional whodunit should look elsewhere." "The serpentine story line has more wonderful curves than Lombard Street as Max, accompanied by Dixie and the ghosts, provides an intriguing tour of San Francisco." "Somewhere in the authorial firmament, Raymond Chandler is attempting to steal this passage for his latest celestial novel:
-- Kirkus' Review - "The World's Toughest Reviewers"
-- "Jessica Moyer, "Booklist
-- Publishers' Weekly
-- Harriet Klausner, Genre-Go-Round
'Blashky introduced me to Miss Vicky. She leaned her forearms onto the bar, framing her bounteous breasts in the strong embrace of her bare arms. A man could lose his motel keys in that cleavage.'
Robinson's stylistics and Max's theatrics--equally bravura--make for a most exotic port of call in a mystery that defies categorical gravity, quite alike a perpendicular cable-car ride."
-- David Marshall James, Yahoo Shine
