A time when writers such as Bernard Malamud, and Isaac Bashevis Singer and Grace Paley roamed the earth.” In a review in ''Esquire'', critic Benjamin Percy wrote that the book "is poised to be this year’s sensation. The layered riches and historical sweep of its stories make them feel grand, like novels writ small ... This collection matters so much."
