Reviews:
"An unbridled romantic, Stephen Vicchio combines an alarmingly keen intellect with a child-like respect for the divine. Vicchio is a national treasure, and The I of the Beholder is only his latest shrine."
Ramsey Flynn
Editor, Baltimore Magazine

"There are many ways of teaching, Stephen Vicchio extends his remarkable teaching career in these essays. From reading them and mulling them over, I have learned to see more clearly what my eyes behold, and to make the connections which distinguish me as a person. To every reader this is a gift."
