About this title

Synopsis

Review

"The struggle between what we know is real and what we want to believe, despite all evidence to the contrary, is beautifully depicted in Andrew Jordan's confusion." LORI WILKERSON Washington Observer-Reporter

"One would have to look carefully to find a contemporary genre in American letters in order to properly locate Charles Hebert's novel, "Swimming to Atlantis." Judith Guest's "Errands into the Wilderness" comes to mind. Perhaps too the work of Tobias Wolff, especially in "This Boy's Life." Mr. Hebert, like these authors, writes about the nature of the human soul, the geography of the soul." ROBERT ROECKIEN, JR. Writing Instructor, Rutgers University -- Publisher Comments
