Like the masters, she makes it look effortless." ---Chicago Tribune. "From its opening sentence -- a woman leaving a church in midtown Manhattan, in post- World War II America -- Alice McDermott's exquisite sixth novel unfolds in unhurried splendor, its pace so exacting you can feel the sting of sand in a high city wind."--Boston Globe. 279 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . .
