Review:
[Will] make you nostalgic, not just for earlier times, but for another era in short fiction. A time when writers such as Bernard Malamud, and Issac Bashevis Singer and Grace Paley roamed the earth.--Meg Wolitzer
A memorable collection of melancholic vignettes about identity, place, and coupling.--Ann Hulbert
Fresh and offbeat... memorable and promising.--Dwight Garner
Antopol writes convincingly and with great empathy.--Carmela Ciuraru
[Antopol] is a wry, occasionally funny writer, with an unerring grasp on human nature.--Laura Moser
A writer of seismic talent...Not since Robert Stone has a writer so examined the nature of disillusionment and the ways in which newfound hope can crack the cement of failed dreams.--Adam Johnson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Orphan Master's Son
Beautiful, funny, fearless, exquisitely crafted, and truly novelistic in scope...It's clear we're in the hands of a master storyteller--a writer with the emotional heft of Nicole Krauss, the intellectual depth of Saul Bellow, and the penetrating wit of Philip Roth. This book isn't simply powerful and important--it's necessary.--Jesmyn Ward, author of Sing, Unburied, Sing
Molly Antopol's stories display that wonderful combination of an original voice with settings that are masterfully rendered. A rich collection, a great read.--Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone
This is deeply humane fiction, coursing with the heat of a passionate, sympathetic heart.--Ken Kalfus, author of A Disorder Peculiar to the Country and Equilateral
A brave, generous, and effortlessly smart story collection by a young writer with talent to burn.--Lauren Groff, author of Fates and Furies
