About SARACENO:
In its first hardcover edition
(2005), review copies were sent out, warm reviews were written, but the
book was never distributed because the small press that issued it failed.
These rare copies are traded actively on the web, often at much higher
prices than the original issue.

Reviews:
• "Saraceno is an
electric tone-poem straight from a world we only think we understand. An
heir to George V. Higgins and David Mamet, Djelloul Marbrook writes dialogue
that not only entertains with an intoxicating clickety-clack, but also
packs a truth about low-life mob culture The Sopranos only hints at. You
can practically smell the anisette and filling-station coffee."
—Dan Baum, author of Nine Lives: Mystery, Magic, Death and Life in New
Orleans (Spiegel & Grau, 2009)
• "…a good ear for crackling
dialogue… I love Marbrook’s crude, raw music of the streets. The notes
are authentic and on target…"
—Sam Coale, The Providence
(RI) Journal
• "Strongly recommended as
a remarkably crafted tale."
—Midwest Book Review
• "This lyrical and violent,
funny and sad, hot and cool novella haunts us. Try it.” —Ann
LaFarge, Taconic Weekend
