Recenzii
“Spellbinding, utterly deceptive in its brevity, Jessica Treadway’s novel packs into a single day one of the most haunting stories I have ever read about the price we pay for the secrets we keep. It’s also about friendship, motherhood, mortality, the meaning of work, and the search for lasting love.” — Julia Glass, National Book Award–winning author of Three Junes and A House Among the Trees
“The Gretchen Question is a powerful and emotional ride with disorienting, satisfying turns and a stunning end. Treadway is masterful.” — Lily King, author of Euphoria and Writers & Lovers
"Roberta’s . . . emotional journey is captured beautifully. Treadway powerfully captures one woman’s attempt to live a meaningful existence despite all that she has endured." — Publishers Weekly
"A thoughtful, and thought-provoking, meditation on love, loss, and legacy." — Kirkus Reviews

— The Portland Book Review
"Moving... delicately paced... The story takes on an urgency that carves an edge into everything.” — Book Trib

“It’s been a long time since I’ve read a novel at once this gripping, and this wise, and psychologically complex.

“Since her debut story collection Absent Without Leave came out in 1992, Jessica Treadway has wowed critics with resonant depictions of flawed, all-too-human characters.” — The Boston Globe
“An intricately plotted psychological thriller." — The Chicago Tribune
