Edith Tiempo writes in her Introduction to the book: "One rarely sees her ficttion such a felicitous rendering of absence-as-presence, where the 'absence' is total, and 'presence ' so persasive....ultimately , it is the triumph of this writer's 'articulate inarticulate' device that proclaim these stories as neither cathartic nor hemeopathic (in the Greek tragic sense), but as an achievement substantially and intrinsically artistic. But the most effective articulation of the crucial but 'absent' insight is in the high quality of the diction itself, the utterance so well considered...elevating and lending dignity and elegance to that most inelegant of the human being's occupations: his entropy and dissolution. The gratified reader will agree that Susan Lara may please continue her forcible and understand forays into the recesses where the great silent human dilemmas prowl, and transform them into the exquisite pains and strenghts of art."
