Editorial Reviews

Review

“While focusing on failed fathers and the disruptions of family life, this well-written collection nevertheless hails the human spirit.” -“Library Journal”

“The five stories and one novella in Grossinger’s debut fiction collection center on Jewish-Americans who are haunted by persecutions imagined and real, including the Holocaust. Grossinger displays a strong command of dramatics and a plaintive writing style suitable for taking on the most emotional of topics.” -“Publishers Weekly”
