RaveLocusMargaret Atwood could take lessons from Pullman; this is how you write a sequel that builds on and raises the stakes of an already well-established story ... a gorgeous and emotionally devastating experience.
Amy Bonnaffons
PositiveLocusIn the literary sense, Bonnaffons is a close neighbor of Karen Russell and Laura van den Berg, with Kelly Link perhaps living down the block ... In general, these are stories of yearning, of desires and voids that the women telling the stories can’t quite name ... I enjoyed these character studies and explorations of emotional landscapes, although there was a certain amount of thematic overlap. \'Horse\' is...the strongest story, and the book’s just about worth picking up just for that.
