New York Times Book Review: "[The] history is most effective when composed of shards of memory: the ragged jumps in the characters' storytelling and the novel's refusal to tidy up their mysteries are evocative and powerful....It seems fair enough that a story of five generations of people who have stepped outside their own tribes to embrace others should end on such a clear, high note of hope." |
