Title: An Outstanding Debut Novel
Review: This is an outstanding novel which is so multi-faceted that it bears reading and rereading to discern the many levels that can be missed the first time. A previous reviewer commented that only one author gave favorable quotes on the book jacket. This was probably the result of a need to go to press quickly. Since publication, the book has received rave reviews in Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, The New York Times, Time Magazine (listed as one of 6 promising young authors of the year),Booklist, The Christian Science Monitor, San Francisco Chronicle, to name just a few. Those who love serious literature should judge for themselves.
