Recensioni della critica

“A sorceress to be reckoned with.”The New York Times Book Review

“She is a sorcerer. She is our greatest living fabulist.”—Carmen Maria Machado

“Funny, scary, surprising and powerfully moving within the span of a single story or even a single sentence.”—Karen Russell, The Miami Herald

“This is what certain readers live for: fiction that makes the world instead of merely mimicking it.”—Audrey Niffenegger

“[These] exquisite stories mix the aggravations and epiphanies of everyday life with the stuff that legends, dreams and nightmares are made of.”—Laura Miller, Salon, Best Books of the Decade
