-- Denis Donoghue, New York Times Book Review "In almost all the stories in this excellently balanced collection O'Connor's people explode from the page. The nice are here and the nasty: the gentle, the generous, the mean, the absurd, those rich in dignity, those without a shred of t adornment, he simply tells the truth."/5(42). 15 quotes from Frank O'Connor: 'Even if there were only two men left in the world and both of them saints they wouldn't be happy. One them would be bound to try and improve the other. That is the nature of things.', 'No man is as anti-feminist as a really feminine woman.', and 'I was a great believer in hot buttered toast at all hours of the day.'.
