Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Louis Edwards' Ten Seconds is a very readable first novel, ingenious and gracefully written. It is also very disturbing. . . . Edwards is effective without overt, clichéd attacks on the system; absent are strident denunciations."--Maurice Bennett, Washington Post Book World

"Ten Seconds is classic in its intimate portrait of maleness, softspoken and secretive. . . . Ten Seconds is filled with beautiful insights about what goes on between men, the subtle communications, rather than backslapping or jostling. . . . This is Louis Edwards' first book and a fine debut, testament to believing and thinking about living. . . . A perfect 'Ten'."--Fatima Shaik, New Orleans Times-Picayune
