Recensione:
PRAISE FOR BRET LOTT
“A beautifully crafted first-person epic of one poor Southern woman’s personal duel with God . . . This is a voice we don’t want to stop hearing. . . . Some of the tenderest scenes of family love since those in Dickens.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Lott is one of the most important and imaginative writers in America today. His eye for detail is unparalleled; his vision—where he looks—is like no one else’s in this country.”
—Los Angeles Times
“Bret Lott has a gift for making the ordinary seem luminous. In Jewel, he applies his art to a broad canvas and produces what may stand as his masterpiece. . . . Lott matches the honest strength of his characters with that of his prose. His Jewel is a force of nature, her story rising out of a perfect, seamless union of teller and tale.”
—The Boston Globe
