"...At the heart of Helms's novel are questions of what to make of new possibilities and dreads in a world shattered by war at an industrial scale. Helms relishes the dishy pleasures of Paris salon culture, imagining sharp, inspired colloquies with Stein, Pound, Rimbaud, and more, but rather than simple celebrity cameos these encounters suggest the new ways of living, seeing, and creating...The storytelling is fleet and crisp, the prose as pleasurable as the "croissants and Normandy butter and sweet French fruit preserves" that break these characters' fasts...Moving novel of the lost generation of soldiers and artists in Paris after WWI."
--Publishers Weekly Booklife
"...Helms does a phenomenal job of conveying the mood of postwar Paris with his prose... The theme of people finding themselves irrevocably changed by the Great War is similarly enthralling ...Helms presents an incredibly engaging tale with quick-witted dialogue and a view into a historical period that feels both emotionally honest and charmingly nostalgic...Riveting and humorous-a great choice for history buffs who enjoy a bit of decadence."
--Kirkus Reviews
