Praise

Times Literary Supplement
"The carefully built-up momentum of THANKSGIVING is not maintained to the end. This simplistic resolution is a disappointment after such an exciting narrative." - Justin Warshaw 10/13/2000

Entertainment Weekly
"[T]old in poignant and irreverent prose that will awaken any reader's sympathy in this gripping tale of love and loss." - Cherise Bathersfield 03/30/2001
