Praise

“Brilliant, funny, astonishing.” —The New York Times Book Review

“Stunning . . . Simpson takes on—and reinvents—many of America’s essential myths.” —The New York Times

“Mona Simpson writes with confidence, with a swagger. She is already a master.” —Anne Tyler, USA Today

Anywhere But Here is a wonder: big, complex, masterfully written, it’s an achievement that lands [Simpson] in the front ranks of our best novelists.” —Newsweek

“The two women in this book are American originals. Ann is a new Huck Finn, a tough, funny, resourceful love of a girl. Adele is like no one I’ve encountered, at once deplorable and admirable—and altogether believable.” —Walker Percy
