'I can't think of a living stylist I admire more than Renata Adler' ELIF BATUMAN
'Luminously exact' NEW YORK TIMES
'It was as though the novel had outstretched arms and I fell in' PARIS REVIEW

When Speedboat burst on the scene in the late '70s it was like nothing readers had encountered before.

It seemed to disregard the rules of the novel, but it wore its unconventionality with ease. Reading it was a pleasure of a new, unexpected kind.

Above all, there was its voice: ambivalent, curious, wry, the voice of Jen Fain, a journalist negotiating the fraught landscape of contemporary urban America. Party guests, taxi drivers, brownstone dwellers, professors, journalists, presidents and debutantes fill these dispatches from the world as Jen finds it.

A touchstone over the years for writers as different as David Foster Wallace and Elizabeth Hardwick, Speedboat returns to enthral a new generation of readers.

批評家のレビュー

One of the more penetrating and oddly hypnotizing books I know; reading it is like being in a snowstorm. ...If all you get from SPEEDBOAT is a shudder of pleasure and self-recognition, you are probably not reading deeply enough. Welcome Back, Renata Adler (Meghan O'Rourke, THE NEW YORKER)
I was in love and then I wasn't, and sometime during the drifting gray interim I was told by a bookseller friend to read SPEEDBOAT, a novel that had long been out of print but was absolutely, he insisted, worth the trouble of the search. ... My friend was correct, as booksellers usually are; it was as though the novel had outstretched arms and I fell in (Anna Weiner, PARIS REVIEW)
Adler is page by page, line by line, and without interruption, brilliant (Miranda Popkey, NEW YORK OBSERVER)
SPEEDBOAT is dazzling ...line for line and sentence for sentence, it seems to me thrilling. ... observant, funny, urban (Matthew Spektor, THE BELIEVER)
The kind of book you buy multiple copies of to push on friends, the kind you dog-ear and mark up until it could line a hamster cage. It will literally knock your socks off. Read it (CHICAGO TRIBUNE)
I can't think of a living stylist I admire more than Renata Adler (Elif Batuman)
A brilliant series of glimpses into the special oddities and new terrors of contemporary life-abrupt, painful, and altogether splendid (Donald Barthelme)
