Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

This first online edition is a natural extension of the availibility of Ellyn Bache's important work. It has twice been a Literary Guild selection and has been widely translated. The movie won the Beatrice Wood Film Award. From the Publisher Safe Passage is termed "vivid and heartwarming" by Publishers Weekly and lauded by Booklist as a "warm-hearted novel (whose) truest achievement is its recognition of the complexities of parenting.

From the Author

About her novel, Bache says, "The appeal of Safe Passage is probably that it's the ultimate novel about maternal guilt. Mothers always feel that whenever they're doing something for themselves they're somehow neglecting their children, and they're going to be punished for it. It's skewed thinking, but most mothers torture themselves with it. When Mag's son is missing, she figures this is the punishment for all her failings. What's reassuring is that Mag is a better mother than she thinks she is. Most of us are better mothers than we give ourselves credit for."
