"A darkly funny, lyrical, and shrewdly observant chronicle of a family on the verge of a nervous breakdown." — Tom Perrotta, author of The Abstinence Teacher
"Meno is thinking hard about why the world is the way it is and about where hope for change might reasonably lie." — Jonathan Dee, New York Times Book Review
