Among Women

"Sangeorzan, in the tradition, and with the brilliance of Chekhov, weaves his own immigrant experience in these tales of a suspenseful human web. He is a writer for our time who answers the recurring question of American identity with exquisite and persuasive art."

—  Andrei Codrescu, poet and chronicler of American Life

 

"Sangeorzan embodies something that’s been missing from the American scene since William Carlos Williams: the poet-doctor—a person who works to heal our all-too-impermanent bodies without sacrificing the sensitivity, intellect, and humor that nourish our minds and souls."

—  Bruce Benderson, author of User   

"One has to be bold and independent in order to be a writer and to be a surgeon...Adrian Sangeorzan understands intuitively with his heart and talent and that is what he tells his reader in every story. His voice is very strong and genuine. This is not a belle lettre but a real voice talking about real things."

—  Andrey Gritsman, poet and physician
