Review:
"William Maxwell's tales, long and short, have the elusive ability to reveal us to ourselves" (Erica Wagner The Times)
"However different their settings the sensibility remains constant. It is decorous, highly civilised and deeply thoughtful" (Anthony Quinn Observer)
"All of them share the effect of a brilliant view - as though a window were opened on a contained and vivid scene...There is a rare clarity and economy here - along with that wise measured humanity" (Penelope Lively Spectator)
"The stories are formidable...we know we are in the presence of a master craftsman" (Sydney Morning Herald)
"Maxwell's triumph is to bring brightness and a seething, submerged emotion to an America long dead... he offers us scrupulously executed, moving landscapes of American's twentieth century, and they do not fade" (Claire Messud Times Literary Supplement)
