Home: A Novel (SUNY series in Postmodern Culture) - Softcover

"The parallel in Adams's latest novel--between latter-day discontents in an English department and a short-lived colony of good-natured anarchists who occupied the woods at the bottom of Puget Sound early in the twentieth century--is wise rather than clever, and shapely, not forced. While it steers fairly close, in theme, to what goes on in 'Opinion' pieces in The Chronicle of Higher Education or the kind of laborious academic satire that no one really reads, Home is better than that--it's a novel, not a satire." -- Bruce Michelson, author of Literary Wit

Many Pretty Toys

"An intelligent account of intelligent people trapped within their own intelligence: Adams writes sharply and without favor about a period of history that is almost always considered in strictly partisan terms." -- KIRKUS REVIEWS

"Adams's shrewd tale of Vietnam-era idealism on a college campus plays out with dignity and intelligence." -- Publishers Week

"In our multimedia age, it's refreshing to be reminded how literature on its own, and without being written for TV, can compellingly define the watershed events of the century. The events at issue in Hazard Adams's brilliant fourth novel are the student anti-war and anti-establishment protests of the late 1960s and early '70s, which forever altered our world view of how those coming of age matriculate into society." -- SEATTLE WEEKLY

The Horses of Instruction

..".witty and merciless, yet not a satire of folly only, for even the antagonists are seen and understood eventually in the light of a humane understanding, though they are not forgiven." -- Los Angeles Ties

The Academic Tribes

"An enjoyable description (and vivisection!) of the various groups who people Academe....Essential for anyone who extracts his livelihood from the forests primeval of Academe and who periodically suffers fits on the meaning of it all." -- Choice
