"A master chronicler of our life and times."--Newsday
"A very funny book. . . . If Jane Austen had been crossed with Oscar Wilde and re-crossed with the early Evelyn Waugh, and the result plonked down among the semi-beautiful people of the late 20th-century media-fringe America . . . the outcome might have been something like this."--Margaret Atwood "Ferociously funny."--The Los Angeles Times "Beattie's new novel, her third, is a gratifying surprise. Love Always will be welcomed by the large and loyal Beattie readership, but there is much that recommends it to the previously unconverted."--Harper's Bazaar "Beattie's most comic--indeed her first satiric--work to date. . . . Much of the book's authenticity derives from the accretion of felt detail--a Beattie trademark. She captures 1984 Vermont with right-on references to Cyndi Lauper, Horchow catalogues, and 'pre-Cabbage Patch' Coleco."--The Christian Science Monitor"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
