REVIEWS
"Some of Shanley's sharpest comic writing in years His intense engagement with questions of religion and ethics remains distinctive and invigorating" ~ New York Times
"There's a deeper philosophical vein that the author mines, allowing his language to acquire the heft and timbre of a serious moral debate We taste bitterness, but also much that is sweet" ~ Time Out, New York
