"Now Mr. Tsiang has written a satiric allegory, a potpourri of narrative and song ... Mr. Tsiang's fanciful and often fantastic visions of the works on Union Square and of the parasites in neighboring night clubs and office buildings -- while too simplistic to become high art -- nevertheless convey more truth than a shelf of reportrial novels."--Foreword.
