Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
It's the old midlife crisis tale, just without a lot of charm or surprises.

Roth, as the writer-narrator and sexy center of the piece, simply shines.

I love a good story, too, but I prefer one that actually goes somewhere (although, as joy rides to nowhere are concerned, this one is a beaut).

Despite the potential for menace implied by its set-up, Lucia, Lucia is finally about finding the opposite.

rotten:
Lucia, a writer of children's books, dips in and out of fiction in her own life, the line blurring so often that it's hard to tell what's real and what's fantasy in Lucia, Lucia. It's even harder to care.
