"As ever, Irving is at his best with the family relationships he creates. They are simultaneously touching and infuriating. It is with these relationships that Irving firmly grasps universal truths and puts a chokehold on his readers. Irvings descriptions are distressing to read, but they force the reader to relate to the characters in a way they would not in most works of fiction" (Calgary Herald).
