Critics Review
The protagonist of HENNY ON THE COUCH is a New York mother we can all identify with-bright, harried, striving, and hopeful. You want her to be your best friend. This is a book for any woman who’s ever had dreams for herself or wondered what became of them. - Amy Sohn, author of Prospect Park West
“Rarely has there been a novel that has dealt quite so honestly with the issues that assail urban women today. Unflinchingly honest and devoid of self-indulgence, Henny on the Couch is a compelling, brave, and beautiful novel.” - Kaylie Jones, author of Lies My Mother Never Told MeSoodak’s first novel, about an affluent New York mom and her rocky relationship with her own mother, considers several mother-daughter parallels … Set against the backdrop of the Big Apple, which Kara clearly loves, the book examines Kara’s life … in writing that flows… [this] portrait of a privileged upper-class New York mom rings true. - Kirkus ReviewsAbout The Author
