Recenzii
" The Futility Experts starts with a bang and only gets more explosive from there . . . laughs and satisfying plot twists . . . I flipped pages till the night was dawn . . . an auspicious debut for this talented new voice." Bill Roorbach, author, Life Among Giants , The Remedy for Love and The Girl of the Lake
"Margaret Broucek's The Futility Experts makes hilarious art out of disaster. An extravagantly comic, strangely moving novel. I loved it." Brock Clarke, author, An Arsonist's Guide to Writer's Homes in New England
"Broucek's prose is stunning. Terrific turns of phrase, technicolor images, and a linguistic sensibility left-of-center enough to please and amuse without ever becoming gaudy or otherwise drawing undue attention to itself." Ron Currie, Jr., author, The One-Eyed Man and God Is Dead
"What Kris Kristofferson said when he discovered John Prine is what comic writers are going to say about Margaret Broucek. She's so good that we'll have to break her thumbs." David Carkeet, author of The Full Catastrophe
"With a deft absurdist touch and biting wit, Broucek details the fraught lives of a Marine sniper impersonator and a struggling teacher with a yen for cryptozoology. Broucek has a wonderful gift for conceiving oddball situations and making them hilarious." Thomas Urquhart, The Portland Herald Express
