Praise for Joan Wickersham and The News from Spain:
“Wise and courageous and often brilliant . . . . The News From Spain is a wonderfully imaginative and original book that should be cherished now, as surely as it will be cherished in the future by anyone interested in the evolution of the American short story.” —Roberta Silman, The Boston Globe
“Virtuosic….Wickersham [takes an] emotional cannonball into every single one of her characters. The doubts and tenderness they share are ones that only the finest fiction can create.” —Oprah.com “Book of the Week”
“Elegantly structured, emotionally compelling… Short stories don’t get much better than this.” —Kirkus Reviews, Best Books of 2012
“Wickersham makes a triumphant return to fiction….Articulates subtleties of human behavior that ordinarily elude language altogether.” —Elle
“So moving it will close your throat.” —Los Angeles Times
“The prose is beautiful, and you feel those characters like real people.” —Cheryl Strayed
