"Like most of Valerio's narrative fiction, 'The Little Sailor'
alchemically combines personal and popular cultural histories; but
unlike the earlier work, this opus resolves the logic and emotion
of its protagonist's episodic memory in a linear plot, transmuting
the Little Sailor's childhood experience of his community
(particularly its women) in the first section, 'Brooklyn, Rome, '
into the action of second section, 'The Bensonhurst Pigeon, ' a
whimsical adaptation of Hammett's and Huston's The Maltese
Falcon."--(Professor G. Guida, CUNY)
