Summary

Quotes from the Critics

"...Baxter has a talent for making us aware of things--like love and despair--that we may not know about. His pictures are graceful, tough and strikingly even-handed." - Los Angeles Times Book Review

"Baxter's novel is a modern Symposium, unexpectedly hilarious in its attempt to get at the evasive truths of love; unlike Plato's treatise, though, its strength lies in its recognition that such truths aren't universal." - New Yorker

"Baxter shows equal felicity with male and female characters, making this evenhandedness look so natural that you forget how few writers are similarly skilled....In THE FEAST OF LOVE, Charles Baxter shows us the hard-won generosity of spirit that day-to-day dealings with other human beings require. He builds a community right on the page before us, using a glittering eye, a silvery tongue--and just a little moonlight." - New York Times Book Review
