From: Debra Di Blasi (ddiblasi@earthlink.net) 2002-01-01

"Both Di Blasi's style and her objective distance and comprehension of her chosen subject mark he as a very psychologically driven, very talented writer." -- Publishers Weekly "A stunning piece of writing...spare and lean, sexy, psychologically charged and extremely visual....A compelling journey into [Di Blasi's} own heart of darkness." -- Neon (Nevada Council for the Arts) "Di Blasi is a bold talent and succeeds in a teasingly abrupt style." -- BookLovers "Di Blasi...is young, brash, hard-nosed, and talented....Her minimalist style, in Drought & Say What You Like, is brilliantly detailed, like the eye of a camera looking outward at carefuly chosen elements of the landscape that make an impression of the whole." --Voices in Italian Americana
