According to New York Times Book review, "Perrin makes a fine defense of country living, not as a retreat from the world but as a place to use talents to battle it out."

Review

A cross between Scott nearing E.B. White, with a little James Harriot thrown in. --Chicago Sun-Times

You have to admire how Perrin lets the language break down into little fragments, hard stones left by a receding glacier. It isn't easy to talk about the soul, and New Englanders have as hard a time as anyone. Perrin's writing mirrors that difficulty, that ingrained reticence. --Alex Hanson, Valley News
