Trade Review
"The stream-of-consciousness narrative helps to make this one of Cortázar's key works." -- Multicultural Review
"Final Exam is an intriguing book for any reader with avant-garde sympathies, or for anyone who—like most who know him—loves Julio." -- San Francisco Chronicle
"The publication of Final Exam is a literary event." -- The Seattle Times
"[A] major undiscovered work...a novel about Buenos Aires which one night turns into a Kafkaesque nightmare." -- Harry Morales - Worldview
"Cortázar spoke of something more than novelty or progress--he spoke of the radically new and joyful nature of every instant, of the body, the memory and the imagination of men and women." -- Carlos Fuentes
"Anyone who doesn't read Cortázar is doomed." -- Pablo Neruda
