Critical Praise

"In one of America’s most mythic landscapes, Russo details one man’s shaky first steps out of his past and into self-knowledge with good humor, generosity, and an open heart."

—Pam Houston, O, The Oprah Magazine

"Wryly funny... An impressively expansive analysis of familial dynamics between not only spouses but also in-laws, parents and children... It’s Russo all the same, and his many fans are sure to savor the journey."
