Bohjalian has a fine hand with light, weather, the color and curve
of the land . . . [he] has constructed an arresting drama . . . as
welcome as rain on a parched garden. New York Newsday"
Bouyant and brilliant. Kirkus Reviews"
I was charmed by the mixture of country lore and planning boards,
New Age witches and old-fashioned family duties, and I was glad
that I read on to the novel's appealing conclusion, drenched as it
is with abiding devotion and love. For anyone interested in the way
we live with the land, on the land today, this novel makes for a
thoughtful evening or two of entertaining reading. Alan Cheuse, All
Things Considered"
