PositiveLibrary JournalMost impressive is her ability to capture the depths of emotions of all her characters while rooting readers in such a strong sense of place. A New York love story at its finest.

RaveLibrary Journal... simply stunning ... The prose is as magical as the haunting world Schaitkin creates; the story is as captivating as the prose; the characters, the imagery—flawless. The novel has social commentary and thematic strength to boot ... This novel is, at its core, a commentary and psychological exploration of motherhood, as readers follow Vera through parenting’s tender highs and most gut-wrenching, self-doubting lows ... Schaitkin’s sophomore novel channels early Margaret Atwood, a magical, otherworldly story certain to be on plenty of 2022 \'best of\' lists.
