Industry Reviews "Even skeptics will find magic in this story, and parents of a Down syndrome child will cherish it." Goldman
"EXPECTING ADAM is a glorious example [of a memoir]. Martha Beck is smart, willing to confide in the reader, good at concise description and very funny, particularly about the most serious possible subjects--childbirth, angels, and surviving at Harvard. Parts of this story are hard to believe--psychic experiences, glimpses of metaphysical beings--but Beck's voice is so sympathetic and most of her details so accurate that they frequently carry all before them." Cheever
