Critic reviews

"Berry shows us the psychic costs of misplaced family pride and social rigidity, and yet he also celebrates the benevolent blessing of familial love. This is simple, soul-satisfying storytelling, augmented by understated humor and quiet insight." ( Publishers Weekly)

Quiet and thought-provoking

Not Berry's best, but still good. A quiet, thought provoking meditation on a life lived and lost.
