Recenzii
"Physical closeness to the natural world underscores all the best imagery in Sweet Eyes. . . . Ms. Agee is a gifted poet of that dark lushness in the heart of the American landscape."—New York Times Book Review
“A big, complicated book about small-town life, in the great American tradition of Faulkner, Willa Cather, and Sherwood Anderson." —Philadelphia Inquirer
“This is a multileveled and sensitive novel about victimization and the struggle to defeat it. . . . [Agee] clearly shows herself to be a significant new novelist.”—Chicago Tribune
“While Agee demonstrates that the roots of psychosis and violence often start within the family, she also makes a case for the family’s importance—and for the necessity of self-esteem—writing with fearless precision and evocative detail.”—Publishers Weekly
“Sizzles and oozes like hot asphalt. . . . [A] funny and street-smart memoir.”—Charlotte Observer
