Paula Spencer Reviews
"Paula's inner life lacks subtler shades, and her outer life is full of tiring work, abstinence from liquor and family. These aren't elements that automatically make for a have-to-read novel, but in this wholly and vividly imagined case, they do." - PW.
"Profound, subtle and unsentimental-the latest from a master back in top form." - Kirkus.
"The four grown Spencer offspring, Paula's two sisters, and a promising romantic interest make up an entertaining supporting cast. Highly recommended for most fiction collections." - Library Journal.
"Although the third-person narration will make some readers miss Paula's voice, this is Paula's story--and it's grand." - Booklist.
