Reviews

"Like a parade, a reunion, a wake, a summit, or a coming out party, C. Carr's On Edge is an occasion. The book brings together the best of those exquisite Carr essays that have salt and peppered the Village Voice for ten years, telling the 'Real Deal' on the ever-cutting edge of what we, the 'nth' generation, refuse to let ourselves continue to call the avantgarde." --Rebecca Schneider, TDR (The Drama Review)

"On Edge is an elegy without sentimentality, dedicated to all the artists in New York's East Village underground, a site of manic creativity and serious hijinks."--Linda S. Kaufman, The Women's Review of Books
