Rezension zu „Spirit House “
"'Moore's flashy style successfully captures the dizzying contradictions of [Bangkok's] vertiginous landscape.' New York Times 'Underneath Bangkok society is a deeply encrusted demiworld of hope, despair, corruption and courage that Moore, a writer who has lived there for almost 20 years, paints with maestrolike Dickensian strokes.' The Seattle Times 'A thinking man's Philip Marlowe, Calvino is a cynic on the surface but a romantic at heart.' Daily Yomiuri (Japan)"
