... even if Lorna Landvik’s latest novel might be described as a little cutesy and a little long-winded, it has substance and purpose ... a real tribute to all of the small-town, warmhearted, big-mouthed 'radical hags' out there, and a truly fun read for them, too.
At a time when local newspapers are nearing extinction, and reporters are deemed enemies of the people, Landvik’s smart and lovely paean to journalists is a welcome reminder of the important role they play in the lives of those who depend on newspapers for more than just information.
Landvik uses wisdom and her trademark humor to encourage readers to have a thoughtful response to the world and the people with whom they share it. A pleasure to read.
