Trade Review"I adored [it] without reservation and inhaled in a single sitting." -- Sarah Weinman - New York Times Book Review
"Michael McGarrity’s
The Long Ago fully delivers what McGarrity does best: a great, sweeping story of family, land, occasional violence, and adventure. From the first pages, you are pulled into a family struggling with both personal and institutional demons. The characters’ worlds are rugged and sometimes harsh but immersive, and McGarrity’s attention to detail is always satisfying. I make it a rule to read anything by McGarrity." -- Valerie Plame, coauthor of Burned
