Recensione:
"Reuss has written a compelling story of a man's spiraling journey inward to an altered mental state.... hilariously on the mark." --St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"The Wasties is one of the most interesting...books of the year." --Rocky Mountain News
“Caruso’s observations are by turns hilarious and devastating, and even as he gradually losses his sanity, they often ring true.” --Washingtonian Magazine
"Reuss has finesse. He is able to evoke suffering and loneliness--especially as it is felt by Caruso's wife--but plays them as background tones in a monologue dominated by Caruso's bright, vibrant voice." --New York Sun
From the Trade Paperback edition.
