"A wonderful story." --New York magazine
"Too engrossing to put down." --The Nation
"Excellent . . . A worthy peer of the likes of Mario Vargas Llosa." --San Francisco Chronicle
"Her best novel yet . . . Montero--who has a wizard's ability to transfix readers' attention as she peels away successive, deceptive layers of plot and meaning--has never written better than in this increasingly suspenseful tale of divided loyalties and lingering resentment and sorrow." --Kirkus Reviews
"Captain of the Sleepers is an evocative, haunting story, as fatalistic, moody and inevitable as a Greek tragedy." --January Magazine
"Montero artfully choreographs the confluence of family, romantic and revolutionary ardor." --Publishers Weekly
"Montero charts the chilling undercurrents of steamy Caribbean life in novels notable for their lyrical intensity and mystery, eroticism and social acumen. . . . A haunting tale of a small place overrun by a superpower and a small family shattered by big dreams of liberation and love, and the mythic alignment of sex and death." --Booklist
"One of the most exciting and interesting writers of the Americas, North and South." --Julia Alvarez
Mayra Montero is the author of seven novels, including Deep Purple, and a collection of short stories. She lives in Puerto Rico.
