Industry Reviews
"Steering clear of post-modern bemusement, estrangement and cynicism, Ms. Ansay...focuses on the epiphanies that make life understandable and bearable...Committed to the spare beauty and meaning embedded in ordinary, conversational language, Ms. Ansay uses the colloquial to elevate the intimate longings of people who might be seen as mere casualties of economic and cultural downsizing...Interestingly, these characters do not become the victims we're so tired of today. According to Ms. Ansay, the world is much more complex than that."
New York Times Book Review - Jonis Agee (11/19/1995)
"...despite the persistent gloom shadowing these stories, the best of them have a mystical beauty. And once in a blue moon, the protagonists do twist free from their psychic confines. At times it seems as if Ansay...has taken on a genre that is largely the domain of male post-modernists, reshaping it subtly and sharply from a feminist perspective....by and large the work gathered here is rich, forthright and lucid, documenting the common tragedies of life without false drama or self-indulgent despair."
Chicago Tribune Books - Julia Glass (01/14/1996)
"Ansay is a stylist and a skillful storyteller."
