Charlie Smith’s MEN IN MIAMI HOTELS was reviewed in the Miami Herald and the L Magazine and was named a Best Book of the Month by Amazon in the literature and fiction category. The Miami Herald called it “peerless,” noting that, “In Smith’s masterfully lyrical prose, what could have been a simple pulpy adventure becomes a rewarding, and even challenging, examination of time, fate and fatalism that recalls the best of work Denis Johnson or Robert Stone.”
