"Berry puts that stake in the ground. He's a poet as well as a wonderful writer, and his message is simple: Nature is our teacher. We just need to listen and feel it, and try not to get in its way."

"Every decade, we get a stunning collection of dynamic, heartbreaking short stories. In the past, those collections came from Barry Hannah, Mark Richard, and Thom Jones. For the next 10 years, Pollock’s work will be tough for any writer to beat."

Awesome book! Stunning prose from a genius writer who managed to weave together thought-provoking themes masterfully. The only thing I didn't like was that I didn't enjoy all the novellas as they were genres I wouldn't normally go for.

"Writer-director Preston Sturges’ most exuberant comedy — a film that’s easy to watch and hard to imagine, God-like in its love for and forgiveness of its protagonists. The Sturges cuisine transforms seemingly lunchmeat ingredients into a rich cinematic repast."

"Writer James Lord sat for a portrait by the brilliant, haunted and exacting artist Alberto Giacometti. It was supposed to last one day and ended up lasting eighteen. A fascinating study of the obsessive artist in the throes of his creation."

"I discovered Amy recently in her New York Times essay “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” This moved me to tears and had me laughing out loud. She is the sort of writer you want to be friends with immediately."
