Reviews

Sante is a superb writer who can give astonishing form to floating moods and thoughts that no one noticed before. --John Ashbery One of the handful of living masters of the American language, as well as a singular historian and philosopher of American experience. --Peter Schjeldahl At once tough in her thinking, empathic in her analysis, and liberated in expression, Sante selects barbed details, tunes in to danger and suspense, and dispenses wry humor and sure insight. --Booklist Sante has a talent for the striking, impressionistic insight and the ability to write transcendental prose. --New York Times Book Review
