Review :

"[Gay] brings to these stories the same astounding talent that earned his novels, The Long Home and Provinces of Night, a devoted following...[A] consistently excellent collection."

-- "Booklist (starred review)"

"After two stunning novels that combined the esoteric language of Cormac McCarthy with the subtle humor of Larry Brown, Gay delivers a concise craft work in his first short-story collection...Much in the same way that Erskine Caldwell created slice-of-life Southern stories that were full of humor, conflict, and even forbidden sensuality many years ago, so now does William Gay."

-- "Oregonian"

"As charming as it is wise. Hellfire--in all the right ways."

-- "Kirkus Reviews"

"Gay captivates with bristling tales of old men, bootleggers, and wife-beaters in rural Tennessee...His prose is as natural and pure as it comes."

-- "Newsweek"

"Gay confirms his place in the Southern fiction pantheon...A fine showcase for Gay's imaginative talent."

-- "Publishers Weekly"

"Gay's characters come right up and bite you...[His] well-chosen words propel the reader straight through his thirteen stories."

-- "Denver Post"

"William Gay is richly gifted: a seemingly effortless storyteller...a writer of prose that's fiercecly wrought, pungent in detail yet poetic in the most welcome sense."

-- "New York Times Book Review"

"Writers like Flannery O'Connor or William Faulkner would welcome Gay as their peer for getting characters so entangled in the roots of a family tree."

-- "Minneapolis Star Tribune"
