.,."the heady blend of literary and philosophical references and some fine character writing make this a noteworthy debut."
-"Publishers Weekly"
"The Poet of Tolstoy Park is one of those unique and wonderful books that sings a hymn of praise to the philosophical and spiritual part of daily life."
-Pat Conroy, author of My Losing Season
"Sonny Brewer writes the way people think and talk, if, of course, those people are poets. The language in this novel is lovely where it needs to be and gristle-tough where it is called for. . . . I loved this book because I love to read, and because I love to write, and I envy the skill in this as much as I loved the story that the writer's skill embraces."
-RICK BRAGG, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of All Over but the Shoutin'
"Without literary pretense and in good back porch storytelling fashion, Sonny Brewer stands his characters up and turns them around so you know them front and back."
-WINSTON GROOM, author of Forrest Gump"
""An intoxicating and loving tribute to an extraordinary man, Henry James Stuart, whose life story is one of the most fascinating adventures I have ever read. . . . Written in language both lush and luminous, Sonny Brewer's debut novel is sustenance for both the mind and the soul. I believe that this novel is destined to become a literary treasure, and Brewer is destined to become a major voice in American literature."
-BEV MARSHALL, author of Walking Through Shadows and Right as Rain
"A celebration of essential simplicity and the dignity of work. Sonny Brewer has given us a story of exploration and discovery, of the wisdom of plainness, ofliving in touch with each approaching and passing moment. You will not want to put it down."
-ROBERT MORGAN, author of Gap Creek" "and This Rock
"With prose that mirrors the grace of his protagonist, Brewer seamlessly merges time and place with the interior landscape of the heart."
-WILLIAM GAY, author of Provinces of Night
