"[An] elegiac novel, achieved through exquisitely chosen sensory details that reverberate with emotional intensity. Here [Krauss] gives us her tragic vision pure. It is a high-wire performance, only the wire has been replaced by an exposed nerve, and you hold your breath, and she does not fall". (Rebecca Newberger Goldstein - The New York Times Book Review.
