Praise for Legs
“Dynamite…Legs is what a novel is supposed to be.”—The Washington Post Book World
“A brilliant novel, a truly creative piece of work . . . like any real artist, Kennedy takes what is really a sordid, vulgar reality and turns it into a human tragedy.”—Mario Puzo
“Pure literary excitement…easy to read and hard to put down. I enjoed it from beginning to end and wished it were longer.”—Joseph Heller
More Praise for William Kennedy
“Kennedy’s justly acclaimed Albany Cycle [is] one of the imperishable products of American literature since the Second World War. These books can be read singly or in sequence, but read they must be. Kennedy is one of our necessary writers.”—GQ
“Kennedy’s novels have the rough feel of stories told, not of chapters written and artfully polished. His beguiling yarns are the kind of family myths embellished and retold across a kitchen table late at night, whiskified, raunchy, darkly funny, tangles of old resentments and fresh exasperations.”—TIME
