"Harvey Havel has a strength as a contemporary writer which is unique the ability to combine a subtle minimalism with the complexity of a Jorge Luis Borges, all while holding the attention of readers from any walk of life. His diversity of range is also astounding. As a voracious reader, I am not easily impressed, particularly by debut novels or collections of short stories, but there is a Magical Realism here which perhaps escapes even that categorization. If one were to combine Shel Silverstein with Raymond Radiguet, these would perhaps be the stories that might emerge. Easy on the eyes, potent for the brain, this is material that promises a lasting future and deserves a good look."--John Allen, Assistant Editor, Breath and Shadow magazine "Harvey Havel's stories achieve a compelling balance between the philosophical and the literary. At his best, Havel manages to both captivate and teach."-- Ben Evans, Executive Editor, Fogged Clarity.com "Havel's stories probe the psyche's remote corners and investigate the heart's neglected crevasses. His characters are ragged and hopeful; his visions feverish and yet lucidly drawn. Havel skewers authority, defies expectation, and creates an oasis where the spirit stumbles--or soars!-- Kilian Melloy, Arts Columnist, EDGE Boston
