"Singer's novel travels up and down the scale of sorrow, reflecting the musical and psychological connotations of her title...This haunting story...feels suspended in a murky state between memory and presence, happiness and despair."--Ron Charles, The Washington Post
"Astonishing... This beautifully written, ultimately uplifting story of love, parenthood, and letting go is set in London during the summer of 2005, when terrorist bombs rocked the city."--Amazon Book Review "Subtle, affecting...The novel shimmers between meanings, never settling on the single one. It...continues to reverberate in the mind after its final words."--Columbus Dispatch "The characters...are constructed with depth and richness...Singer's London emerges as a place of missed connections, miscommunications and misinterpretations."--New York Times Book Review "An unusually layered debut. In short, taut chapters, [Underground Fugue] alternates between two families who have suddenly become neighbors...When terror strikes, the plot accelerates and the novel's strands converge brilliantly." --Publishers Weekly "Singer gracefully weaves the fugue motif throughout her debut novel...The result is a nuanced, realistic exploration of themes of loss and identity, which seem particularly relevant in these uncertain times."--Library JournalMargot Singer won the Flannery O'Connor Award for Short Fiction, the Reform Judaism Prize for Jewish Fiction, the Glasgow Prize for Emerging Writers, and an Honorable Mention for the PEN/Hemingway Award for her story collection, The Pale of Settlement. Her work has been featured on NPR and in the Kenyon Review, the Gettysburg Review, Agni, and Conjunctions, among other publications. She is a professor of English at Denison University in Granville, Ohio.
