Belated Mention of the Washington Post
Brunonia Barry, who wrote the very good The Lace Reader, also wrote this review of Come in and Cover Me for the Washington Post.
It’s a very smart piece, and it’s kind and generous in the way I think all writers should be. It always puzzles me when a reviewer–especially another novelist–goes out of his way to criticize in a really cruel way. There’s just no point. But, whew, Barry is a lovely reviewer, and I need to get her new book.
Right now I am desperately trying to finish up an edit of my next manuscript. I have three hours before I need to pick up the baby.
