"Imagine Chagall being commissioned to do the drawing for The Joy of Sex, and you'll have some notion of the topsy-turvy, concupiscent free-for-all that Vox conjures up... The book achieves a giddy buoyancy that you don't often find in American fiction." - Michael Upchurch, San Francisco Chronicle
"Explicit, often funny, and above all erotic...Baker specializes in the risky and playful." - Cyra McFadden, Los Angeles Times
"This is Ravel's 'Bolero' played out on the page...The conversation gets sexier and sexier and...well, I'm too wrung out to go on." - Louise Bernikow, Cosmopolitan
