"The fact that Holzer's 'mock-cliché' truisms sound like the vices, virtues, and prescriptions printed at the turn of the century is at least stylistically no accident, for as she has said about these, her first writings: 'I try to polish them so they sound as if they had been said for a hundred years, but they're mine.'"
Joan Simon, Parkett no. 40/41, 1994.
