Críticas:
"Ridiculous, extravagant, and successful....The reader wonders what in the world is going to happen next--and keeps flipping the pages."
"A loose-fitting collection of three stories by a prolific poet, novelist, and playwright: a low-key fantasy about a magical impressionist who discovers that disguises are really a search for true self; an impressionistic portrait of the enforcers and exploiters of the law in the rural South; and an amusing shaggy-dog account of a Florida tent revival meeting which escalates into a patchwork of grotesquerie and bizarre coincidence."
"Distinctive in matter and manner, ranging in mood from comic to grim, these vignettes might have been written by different authors, except for the constants of Garrett's realistic, imaginative dialogue and dazzling quick-sketch portraiture....[They] will leave the reader high on the art of this raconteur."
"All three of the novellas in The Magic Striptease move Garrett's readers onto ambiguous and revealing moral ground, each in its own distinctive way.... The book is a small masterpiece, quite as brilliant as the major novels of Garrett's Elizabethan trilogy."
