“Old myths clash with new realities, love is in a ride-or-die with grief, faith rubs hard against magic, and comic flips with tragic so much that they meld into something new.”

“This family saga is shark-tooth sharp. Its pages shoot off crackles and sparks, and you come out of it changed.””

“...a lush, virtuosic novel with breathless scope and lasting depth.”

“Faith and grief, rage and love—this book pulses with all of it. Kawai Strong Washburn’s debut displays a wealth of talent and a true artist’s eye.”
