Knight is without a doubt a new writer of considerable talent and promise. -- San Francisco Chronicle <br><br> Potent . . . Confident . . . Written in lucid and unself-concious prose. -- Wall Street Journal <br><br> A fresh, formidable talent. -- Bookpage <br><br>

Knight's understated prose gives the book its power, moving slowly, but fully, through the gamut of his characters' emotions. ... A fresh, formidable talent. -- Mark Luce
