Brownrigg, Sylvia, Salon: "[R]isky, moving fiction....with an edgy, original language and dark comedy....Kennedy has a beautiful way with the lonely and the bereft, and a keen sense of the pleasurable strangenesses of sexuality. She writes with a vivid synesthesia....Kennedy's rare gifts have been evident in her four earlier prize-winning fictions, and her publication in the United States is long overdue." |
