Trade Review
"What we cannot fail to hear, in Red Rover, is a wise and troubled lullaby for what may yet prove to be the infancy of our species." (Nation) "Her strenuous devotion to the life of the mind doesn't stop her from finding artful ways of giving the call of the wild its due with incantatory conviction." (Boston Globe)"
