"Dave Kress's first novel reminds us how
intelligent a form the novel can be, in the right hands. Counting
Zero is a keenly apprehended story, written with articulate zest
and a voracious appetite for the things of everyday life seen
in consummate detail. Mr. Kress has begun what promises to be
a sparkling career as a novelist. Yes, Virginia, there are still
some stylists on the Rialto."
--Paul West
