REVIEWS OF TICKNOR
Esquire: "Ticknor... is a work brilliantly crafted to deliver its revelations and redemptions.

Somewhere, Prufrock is similing through the tears." ...more San Francisco Chronicle: "a tiny postmodern diamond." ...more Geist: "The optic nerve is not in evidence in Ticknor, a book that calls out to us to read with our ears and not with our eyes, and proves that the art of narrative remains strong enough to take us anywhere at all." ...more The Ottawa Citizen: "Heti has proved once again that no matter how congested our literary byways become, she can be counted on to beat a path entirely her own." ...more |
