Media Reviews
"At once searing and perfectly lyrical...A moving portrait of a woman's struggle to make sense of her peculiar destiny and renown as a mother of the first quintuplets born in North America....[Mason's] finest novel yet."
-- Chicago Tribune Books
"'Feather Crowns' is Bobbie Ann Mason's most ambitious, and to my mind, best book...An original and startling exploration of many facets of womanhood and motherhood, not to mention instant fame." -- Jane Smiley
-- San Jose Mercury News
"Adventures too numerous and astonishing to diminish by brief description." -- Pinkley Benedict
-- Washington Post Book World
"Brilliantly sustained and grimly humorous...A stunning morality tale and wonderfully told story." -- Lisa Alther
-- Los Angeles Times Book Review
"Wonderful...It is difficult to portray the effects of the unknown, our abstract speculation, and yet this novel quiet succeeds...Christie's story is memorable and complete." -- Jill McCorkle
-- New York Times Book Review

The Karamazov Brothers
by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
The Good Soldier
by Ford Madox Ford
'A Tale of Passion', as its sub-title declares, The Good Soldier tells of the complex social and sexual relationships between two couples, one English, one American, and the growing awareness by the American narrator John Dowell of the intrigues and passions behind their orderly Edwardian facade. It is the attitude of Dowell, his puzzlement and uncertainty, and the seemingly haphazard manner of his narration that make the book so powerful and mysterious. Ford called it 'the only novel of mine that I considered...at all to count' and it has perplexed and delighted commentators since its publication in 1915. The novel has many comic moments, despite its catalogue of death, insanity, and despair, and has been read as both a comedy and a tragedy. It has inspired the works of many later, distinguished writers, including Graham Greene.
They Came Like Swallows
by William Maxwell
First published in 1937, They Came Like Swallows was William Maxwell's second novel. It tells of an ordinary American family overtaken by the devastating epidemic of the Spanish influenza of 1918. The book begins on the day before the armistice in a small midwestern town, and the events are seen from the perspective, in turn, of eight-year-old Peter Morison - called Bunny; of his older brother, Robert; and of their father. They are witnesses to a domestic tragedy that is written with beauty and a quite magnificent tenderness.
