Praise for Francesca Lia Block "Lyrical, resonant fables... At once
modern and mythic, her series deserves as much space as it can
command of daydream nation's shrinking bookshelves."
-Village Voice on Dangerous Angels "Block uses the fairytale motif
as a vehicle to convey the tangled-up truths that girls face on the
road to becoming women... As inspiring as [it is]
transgressive."
-Bust on Necklace of Kisses "A fizzy cocktail of Joseph Campbell,
‘Sex and the City', and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, filtered through
the blunt-edged poetry of rock lyrics... A welcome reminder that
midlife is still ripe for magic."
-Time Out New York on Necklace of Kisses
