Affecting...combines often rough action with quietly subtle
emotions to create a fresh and memorable tale of a troubled man's
return from war. Recommended for most public libraries
*Library Journal*
Unusual story...[Lee's] writing is frequently lovely, sometimes
hauntingly so.
*Booklist, (American Library Association)*
A lyrically evocative, haunting first novel....The writing here is
deft and moving, offering vivid description of both the Montana
setting and the remembered Korean landscape....The novel proves
eerily suspenseful, ending on a redemptive note. A gracefully
rendered, beautifully characterized tale about an unusual life.
Jae-Suk Lee is a writer watch.
*Kirkus, (Starred)*
A seamless narrative...beautifully
crafted...remarkable...transcends Asian-American themes, the Korean
War, or first novel anxieties.
*Korean Quarterly*
