"The Fountain in the Forest smartly maps an experimental, Oulipo-inspired structure onto a well-executed police procedural, with both elements of White’s story-telling enhancing the other. The switch between present day and history is a little jarring at first, but these transitions become smoother as the novel progresses, while the somewhat grand guignol violence of the hanged man and his missing nose is justified within the conventions of the genre..." - Thom Cuell reviews The Fountain in the Forest by Tony White
