Críticas:
"[Omensetter's Luck is] Gass' first novel, and his least avant-gardeish, and his best. Basically a religious book. Very sad. Contains the immortal line "The body of Our Saviour shat but Our Saviour shat not." Bleak but gorgeous, like light through ice." -David Foster Wallace "Omsensetter's Luck is the work of a totally committed, totally uncompromising and extraordinarily gifted writer." -Walker Percy "A rich fever, a parade of secrets, delirious, tormented, terrifying, comic...one of the most exciting, energetic and beautiful novels we can ever hope to read." -Harper's
Reseña del editor:
Gass's first novel, OMENSETTER'S LUCK is set in the rural American town of Gilean, where Brackett Omensetter arrives, with his wife, family, and all earthly belongings. It swiftly becomes apparent that he is someone out of the ordinary, as he sets off a ground swell of violent emotions in the once tranquil community. Who is he? What does he represent? Such are the questions that are answered in part by the characters whose inner monologues probe the mystery of Brackett Omensetter.
