Industry Reviews
"The prose throughout is of the kind that looks casual but is unimpeachably crafted."
(01/10/2009)
"[McInerney's] stories have grown more elegant, subtle, shapely and reflective over time, to the point where some of the recent works are perfect specimens. He has quietly achieved the literary stature to which he once so noisily laid claim."
(04/12/2009)
"HOW IT ENDED reminds us how impressively broad McInerney's scope has been and how confidently he has ranged across wide swarths of our national experience."
(04/26/2009)
"It's a credit to the author that the characters he crafts are so strong, the reader continues to care what happens to them after the last page is turned....McInerney is...a master of the short fiction format."
