Recenzii
“The emotions in question here have to do with an almost primal sense of disappointment, the conviction that life is not going to yield up much in terms of love, comfort, or emotional connection. . . . Such discoveries and painful buoyancies are what keep Greenberg’s characters alive, and they, along with her expert craftsmanship, keep the reading experience fresh. . . . The remarkable and heartening debut of a major new voice in [fiction].”
—Orange County Weekly
—Orange County Weekly
“A brilliantly meandering literary landscape populated by characters grappling with a sudden sense of disassociation with things as intimate as their homes, spouses, and children. . . . [Greenberg's] dialogue also displays a deliciously wry wit.”
—Pasadena Star News
—Pasadena Star News
“Poignant and yet occasionally comical. . . . [Greenberg’s] stories are a juxtaposition of the melancholy and the mundane, with a little of the absurd thrown in.”
