<b><i>Salon</i>:</b> "[THE NOONDAY DEMON] is the work of a man who meets the stereotype of the seemingly idle, pampered depressed person, the sort of perpetual patient who talks at length and in detail about himself and his problems. It would be all too easy to dismiss him out of hand. And yet it takes someone like Solomon--articulate, well connected and never bored with the minutiae of a disease that, let's face it, tends to make its victims tragically boring--to be the kind of tireless advocate and booster that depressed people require."

Publisher's Note

Depression is the flaw in love. To be creatures who love, we must be creatures who can despair at what we lose, and depression is the mechanism of that despair.
