<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"If you want to call<b> Deadwood</b> a Western, you might as well call <b>The House of Mirth</b> chick lit. Dexter looked at the dark, twisted, ridiculous doings of Bill Hickok and company, said to himself, 'I recognize that!<b>'</b> and gave us a world-class entertainment." --Jonathan Franzen, author of <b>The Corrections</b>"Unpredictable, hyperbolic and, page after page, uproarious; a joshing book written in high spirits and a raw appreciation of the past." --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i>"Splendid. . . . Rumor put straight. . . . A carefully researched knitting of events into their most dazzling fabric." --<i>The Philadelphia Inquirer</i>"<b>Deadwood</b> may well be the best western ever written." --<i>The Washington Post Book World</i>"What deepens and darkens [Dexter's] writing, so that art is the precise word to describe it, is a powerful understanding that character rules, that we live with our weaknesses and die of our strengths." --<i>Time</i>"Dexter is a master of colloquial poetry, of moods revealed through gestures and settings." -<i>-Playboy</i> "One of the greatest American writers... a storyteller who cuts straight to the nerve." --Scott L. Turow"Dexter's strongest suit is his exquisite understanding of the finely meshed engines of greed, appetite, and interest." --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i>"Great, eccentric characters....Dexter's writing is a living thing." --<i>USA Today</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Pete Dexter is the author of the National Book Award winner <b>Paris Trout</b> and of <b>God's Pocket</b>, <b>Deadwood</b>, <b>Brotherly Love</b>, <b>The Paperboy</b><i> </i>and <b>Train</b>. He was born in Michigan and raised in Georgia, Illinois, and eastern South Dakota. He lives on Puget Sound, Washington.
