Industry Reviews
"A lyrical account of a rural boyhood, dominated by family, nature and village life....One is constantly aware of being in the hands of a master, of a talent that is original, unhurried, almost serene....He is a remarkable writer."
Washington Star - Larry McMurtry

"Nothing rings false in this poetic and realistic tale. Even the scenes that...belong to another time and place will hold your attention to the end."
Chicago Tribune - Elie Wiesel
