One Hundred Names for Love Reviews
"[T]ouching…their journey makes for goofy, pun-happy reading, a little like overhearing lovers coo to each other." - Publishers Weekly
"Starred Review. Writing with her signature empathy, curiosity, brilliance, and mirth, Ackerman chronicles West's heroic battle to reclaim words and mobility...A gorgeously engrossing, affecting, sweetly funny, and mind-opening love story of crisis, determination, creativity, and repair." - Booklist
"A book about love and caring and the magic of communication; perfect for book clubs." - Library Journal
"Ackerman's book is important for the guidance and hope it offers to stroke victims and their families, and it's also a satisfying, tender and humane celebration of love between two literary elites." - Kirkus
"Ackerman's best writing and best book to date." - Antonio Damasio
"An intimate, richly documented, and beautiful memoir …. [A] double portrait of two remarkable people." - Joyce Carol Oates
