Critic reviews

"A staccato burst of verbal star shells, pinwheel phrases, cherry bombs of Joycean puns and wordplays....An amusingly refurbished fairy tale novel of the absurd." ( Time)

"We hear the singing dwarfs of our childhood, and the voice of a splendid writer who knows how to turn spiritual dilemmas into logic, and how to run that logic into comedy, which is the true wised-up story of our time." ( Newsweek)

Excellent performance

Hi! I just wanted to say a big thank you to the people involved into making this audio recording of Snow White. Performance just could not been any better. Great job!
