Media Reviews

A wonderful novel. It has power, meaning, freshness, vitality, and style. -Library Journal

* Library Journal *

The execution is brilliant. A master of the comic and deeply sensitive to the most inarticulate of American sorrows, Morris's work is moving as only truly original work can be. -New York Times

* New York Times *

With increasing skill and insight, the serious (not solemn) contemporary novelist is evaluating our kind of cold war and anxiety by juxtaposing characters and situations of our own and earlier decades. . . . Morris makes you see and feel as well as think. -Saturday Review
