SFGate review of Orfeo

A review of Orfeo by Ted Gioia, San Francisco Chronicle, January 17, 2014.

For sheer bravado in constructing sentences, few authors of contemporary fiction can surpass Powers… The end result is a style that mixes the best elements of Oliver Sacks, Alex Ross and Virginia Woolf. I’m not sure any other writer could pull this off, but Powers has the formula down… One of his finest yet.
