Critic Reviews

A very funny, often sad, erudite eclectic novel writ with style. Terrific
An elegant romance that manages to be both playful and wise. . . infused with a smiling, Mozartean sensibility, reminding us that we can go so awry, break so utterly apart and still find the strength to continue
A carnival of events in which credible characters find themselves in incredible situations
Gale is a master of the deceptively light touch
Excellent
