A blend of close-knit emotional bonds and ambiguous menace... Dimaline's novel is able to take the plot to some unexpectedly phantasmagorical places without losing sight of its emotional core... Dimaline here turns an old story into something newly haunting and resonant. - New York Times Review of BooksEmpire of Wild is a small book. But it is not a slight book. It is close, tight, stark, beautiful - rich where richness is warranted, but spare where want and sorrow have sharpened every word. - NPRRevelatory... Gritty and engaging, this story of a woman and her missing husband is one of candor, wit and tradition." - Ms. Magazine
