Girl at the Edge of Sky

Praise

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

“Artfully imagined. . . . Impressive. . . . Given that [Nattel’s] skill is considerable and her craft formidable, the readers are the great beneficiaries. Lily Litvyak does indeed come to full animated life in a suspenseful, heart-rending story that is difficult to put down. . . . Girl at the Edge of Sky is rich with history and fictional engagement. . . . Nattel is superb.” —The Canadian Jewish News

“Like the glow of the moon over a frostbitten field, Girl At the Edge of Sky illuminates the darkest days on the Eastern Front, revealing all the spark, courage, and tenderness of one of the most fearless fighter pilots you can imagine. Lilian Nattel portrays the remarkable story of Lily Litvyak with striking detail and imagery that is as beautiful as it is chilling.” —Ellen Keith, author of The Dutch Wife

“Lily Litvyak is the kind of character readers hunger for: larger than life, yet so real she inhabits the mind like one you’ve known and loved. A dark and dazzling novel, Girl At the Edge of Sky swept me up from the opening line and kept me spellbound. Nattel writes as well—and as wildly—as her unforgettable heroine flies.” —Alissa York, author of The Naturalist


PRAISE FOR LILIAN NATTEL’S WEB OF ANGELS:

“Right from the first sentence, Web of Angels is astonishing, shocking, loving. Lilian Nattel leads us in an exploration of how our communities cope with deep heartache, the loss of our young, and how we, as individuals, cope with trauma and the communities we carry within ourselves. Step into this novel and you will find yourself submerged; wake from it, and you will find yourself transformed. Web of Angels is a rare gift, perfectly named; within this novel, Lilian Nattel has offered us the work, the weave, of angels.” —Gail Anderson-Dargatz, author of The Cure for Death by Lightning

“Groundbreaking, demanding, brave and beautiful. Web of Angels is a fiction about unspeakable evil rendered so (shockingly) true, the effect is devastating. The miracle is that, in Nattel’s hands, this book becomes a testimony to the fierce kindness in the human spirit, which battles evil and wins. Ultimately the book offers hope for what seems impossible: healing.” —Sheree Fitch, author of In This House Are Many Women

“Some books grab you by the throat from the first sentence: Web of Angels is one of those books.” —The Thought Vox

“Leavened with love and wisdom . . . a daring, textured book that celebrates not just feminine strength but the human spirit.” —The Canadian Jewish News
