"Such a pleasure to read ... nothing less than a triumph." -- William H. Pritchard, The New York Times Book Review
"Wonderful ... gentle and wise." -- Detroit Free Press
"Elegant ... rich with language and ideas." -- Forward
"[A] finely tuned serious novel that conjures a fully formed and vibrant sense of life in all its complexity and eccentric character." -- Elle
"Wonderful ... this is what a novel is supposed to be. There may be young novelists who are more daring, or work on a larger scale. I can't think of one who combines brains with tenderness the way Brian Morton does." -- Charles Taylor, Newsday
