The Seventh Circle Book Review

Vergeen
Benet Davetian
Paperback (September 1996)

The Atlantic: "Impressed with the simplicity and lucidity."

The Montreal Gazette: "Once in a rare while, you encounter a mesmerizing writer who makes the art of storytelling look effortless. Benet's Davetian's latest collection of stories, The Seventh Circle, marks the first time in the year and a half I've written this column thatI've met with such a writer in the English Quebec scene.....exquisitely crafted tales focusing on themes of political persecution, human suffering and displacement...an expert in narrative pacing....subtle ability to probe the Jekyll-Hyde reality of human nature. A memorable and eloquent book that should be a strong contender for the QSPELL,, a Governor-General's and the Prix Parizeau."

Canadian Fiction Magazine: "One cannot stop reading once one has started."

The Mirror: "A powerful work. Distinctly Davetian."
