“Simple yet haunting. Evocative, flawless prose that never tries too hard. A little hint of greats like Steinbeck and Harper Lee, but no imitation; part of its quality is a complete absence of self-consciousness in the writing. Wonderful. Don’t miss it.”

“The American Soul is pictured in this book. I felt myself traveling through the southern United States, driven by the music of the 1960s, in an environment where the Vietnam War marked that generation and divided the world into two. But that farm girl had her own dreams ... and fears.
This book sent me an emotional charge similar to that of Dostoyevsky’s “Crime and Punishment.” She has her own style and I believe she will stand out in the American literary scene.”
