"…a compelling work…exquisitely crafted…" — Globe and Mail

"Gently satirical… [Carol Shields] has a compassion for her characters that can make you ache for them." — The New York Times

"Well-drawn characters, expert writing, and silky malice are combined in an exceptionally satisfying work of fiction" — The Atlantic Monthly

"A spicily witty tale of literary malarkey." — The Sunday Times (U.K.)
