Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“I can’t remember when I last read a novel of such narrative intensity; an unflinching account of a catastrophic, violent, black-comic, transformative year in the history of one broken American family. Flat-out amazing.”
—Salman Rushdie
“Although Homes weaves in piercing satire on subjects like
healthcare, education, and the prison system, her tone never veers into the
overly arch, mostly thanks to Harold—a loveably earnest guy who creates his own
kind of oddball, 21st century family.”
—O, The Oprah Magazine
“Darkly funny…the moments shared between this ad hoc family
are the novel’s most endearing.”
—Time
“Cheever country with a black comedy upgrade…Homes crams a
tremendous amount of ambition into May We Be Forgiven, with its dark humor, its
careening plot, its sex-strewn suburb and a massive cast of memorable
characters…its riskiest content, however, is something different: sentiment. This
is a Tin Man story, in which the zoned-out Harry slowly grows a heart.”
—Los Angeles Times
