Reviews
'Charming ... A thoughtful, gentle portrait of a small town packed with eccentricity' The Times 'A gifted and original novelist ... Lynch creates a likeable and diverse cast of characters' New York Times 'Wonderful ... tender, sad and leavened with wit ... Lynch has written not just a liberal critique of the war on terror but also a moving, optimistic rebuttal of our paranoia that encourages us to imagine, with Brandon, the possibility of flying over everything that divides us' Washington Post 'Its hero is an imaginative tour de force. Lynch's comic borderland is not only palpable, it is richly metaphoric' Globe and Mail
