Trade Review“Sarah’s Girls is a breath of fresh, clean mountain air. I loved it! No Appalachian author can turn a phrase quite like Lenore McComas Coberly. She takes me home!”
“In Sarah’s Girls, Lenore McComas Coberly demonstrates again her stunning gift for storytelling. With a deftness and an economy of lanquage as true and as brave as the kinfolk she so sensitively portrays, Coberly transports us into their world.”
“In a way, this isn’t a story about a family; it’s a story about a place, a place that nourishes and punishes those who inhabit it.”
“Although a work of fiction, (Sarah’s Girls) is one of those compelling and superbly crafted novels that reveal deeper truths about the human condition than most biographies... Sarah’s Girls is highly recommended reading and would make an enduringly popular addition to community library American fiction collections.”
