No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
A portrayal of men and women both aroused and desensitized by an environment that disdains the individual and seeks control over the imagination.
"Kosinski's prose is perfect to his purpose, efficient, detached, lucid as a gem, wholly in command. Steps is a powerful and profoundly disturbing book." βThe New York Times
"CΓ©line and Kafka stand behind this accomplished art. . . . Low-keyed, efficient, controlled." βThe New York Times Book Review
"By some miracle of training, which recalls the linguistic bravado of Conrad and Nabokov, he is already a master of pungent and disciplined English prose. Simply as a stylist, Kosinski has few equals among American novelists born to the language. And I have also become convinced, after reading Steps, that he is one of the most gifted new figures to appear in our literature for some years." βIrving Howe, Harper's
"Steps is a beautifully written book. It is precise, scrupulous, and poetic. I can think of few writers who are able to so persuasively describe an event, set a scene, communicate an emotion." βGeoffrey Wolff, New Leader.
