Critical Praise

Joanna Scott, "a worker of wonders."
—Adrienne Miller, Esquire

"One of the most gifted writers at work today, Scott is brilliant, huge-hearted, devastating."
—Michael Cunningham, People

"Like Ian McEwan, Scott knows the power of willing a tale into existence, reframing fiction to escape the limits of truth."
—Helen Eisenbach, Newsday

"Joanna Scott's words are pearls strung into necklaces of sentences. She's a writer with a gift, a valuable gift."
—Susan Balée, Philadelphia Inquirer

"Joanna Scott is one of today's best novelists, and she keeps getting better. As a writer, she plays with traditional narrative without being obscure or outrageous. Her details are placed in their settings like gems in fine jewelry-each has several facets: the beautiful, the dangerous, the ominous, and the familiar."
—Susan Salter Reynolds, Los Angeles Times
