Reception.
"Boston Review" wrote about the book, "One problem with message-driven theater or literature—presumably, Prose's message is that legislating matters of the heart sets a dangerous precedent in terms of privacy and freedom—is that it quickly dates itself."
"Kirkus Reviews" said, "An academic comedy of manners as engaging as Richard Russo's "Straight Man": Prose once again proves herself one of our great cultural satirists."
