New York Review of Books: “An important book”

The New York Review of Books has just published a lengthy write-up of Chasing Aphrodite, calling it “an important book…about money, art and power.”

The author, Hugh Eakin, has covered the antiquities issue over the years for the New York Times and others. In December 2007, he wrote a lengthy profile of Marion True for the New Yorker (that curiously failed to ask some key tough questions.)
