Description: " The Woman and the Ape has many arrestingly stylish and inventive passages and an overall brilliance of tone that shows once again the originality of Mr. Heg's voice." -- The New York Times "A witty, compelling thriller that touches a primal nerve that has lain dormant since King Kong fell hard for Fay Wray." -- Francine Prose, People "This decade's most offbeat love story . . . Funny, often touching, and definitely inventive." -- David Walton, St. Petersburg Times " The Woman and the Ape is great fun to read. . . . Peter Heg has written an intelligent novel of ideas and slyly disguised it as a lighthearted comedy. . . . He's figured out how to blend his various styles into a distinctive voice that's satiric, deadpan funny, at once warm and cool." -- Brigitte Frase, Newsday "No imaginative writer working today is any more daring than Danish novelist Peter Heg, any more willing to shock readers with something that is genuinely new. . . . He does it again with this utterly original mix of fantasy, fable, myth, and love story." -- Bill Ott, Booklist (starred review) "This should confirm Peter Heg's place as one of the most creative and interesting authors today." -- Elizabeth D.
