Review
"Jeanne Marie Laskas is a wonderful writer, smart as they come, and a real joy to read. Annie Dillard She has a truly distinctive voice and her writing is punchy, perceptive, and utterly without pretention. And she's so funny! She is cheerfully irreverent, and yet underneath there is a current of seriousness. And a wonderful ability to interweave apparently disparate elements..." -- Laurie Graham.
