Media Reviews
'Marcom faces the well-nigh impossible task of speaking the unspeakable. She rises to this challenge...by writing a relatively short, intensely vivid, novel. The fierce beauty of her prose both confronts readers with many breathtaking cruelties and carries us past them...as we turn the pages of this dark and brilliant book, we feel ourselves to be in the presence of a noble act.' New York Times Book Review 'Such material presents a heavy burden for any writer. But Marcom is so talented that...she seems quite capable of carrying it. Her debut will stay with readers for a good long while.' Chicago Tribune 'Reading this heartbreaking, beautiful, painful first novel is a bit like reliving an extraordinarily long dream...This book is not for the faint of heart, but its readers will be well rewarded.' Publishers Weekly
