About

Fascinated by the polarity of being, Paz has boldly attempted to write a "history of man". Unlike countless other histories that simply chronicle civilizations and cultures, Paz's work explores the human heart, the meaning of human nature, and the duality that exists within all beings.

"Delicious insights crop up with pleasurable frequency."
Newsday
"Dense, lyrical, digressive, perverse, and sometimes witty . . . The magician is as serious as he was in The Labyrinth of Solitude. He may not persuade, but he dazzles."
The New York Times
"The descriptive brilliances succeed each other with dazzling rapidity, and Paz takes on the blurred vivacity of a hummingbird."
