Industry Reviews "[S]ometimes an unfortunate tone of self-congratulation threatens to upset the equilibrium of Lee's other wise poised and nuanced stories, which are, in fact, less about simple conquest than they are about the complexities of courage, especially sexual courage, which, she suggests, is linked to every other kind." Times Literary Supplement - Mary Hawthorne (05/03/2002)
"All [the stories] are quite simply engaging, as is the book as a whole. It was worth the wait." Bloomsbury Review - Jim Grinnell
