"Nathanael West's humor is of course not at the expense of the victim. It is a horselaugh at a world that is too ugly and bitter to be dealt with in any other way."
The New York Times
"Los Angeles has been the subject of, and setting for, many fine novels yet The Day of the Locust still feels like the single best-achieved piece of fiction the city has inspired."
The Los Angeles Times
"West's Day of the Locust, a sun-blazed Polaroid of its time, seems permanently oracular."
Jonathan Lethem
