“[A] precision portrait of men, women, marriage, parenthood, and love... a sumptuous taste of how we live now... Perry brings it all to life in such remarkably pinpoint, hilarious, and convincing fashion that you revel in spending more than 300 pages here. It's difficult to come across a sentence, let alone a word, that doesn't smack tone-perfect and also refreshingly colloquial, candid, real.”
—The Boston Globe
“This is a richly imagined, beautifully written, and completely absorbing work of fiction. I found myself spellbound, turning pages well past my bedtime. What a fine, fine book.”
—Tim O'Brien, winner of the National Book Award and author of The Things They Carried
