(As of early 2011, this work has yet to be published in the U.S., so reviews are from Canada. We will add Publishers Weekly, et al, as those reviews become available.)
Skibsrud knows what she's doing: The slow fuse of the novel's first half turns out to be a very effective setup for the explosive second.
National Post (Canada)
A solid debut and a beautiful tribute to a father-daughter relationship.
Globe and Mail (Toronto)
I read it twice, and it’s amazing even the second time, and I think it would be even more amazing the third time. She’s a tremendous stylist.
