What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Sohn likes to bring equal parts dirt and insight to her portrayals of sophisticated New York women. Her new offering… is no exception.” * Entertainment Weekly, “Must Read Books of Summer” *“[Motherland] keeps you hooked—and cackling—until its surprisingly resonant final lines.” – Cathi Hanauer * Elle *“Hilarious, smart, razor-sharp and spot-on, Amy Sohn’s Motherland is a sheer pleasure to read. Did I say riveting? I stayed up long past my bedtime, immersed in the lives of these characters, needing to know how it all turned out.” – Dani Shapiro * author of Devotion and Family History *”[I]t’s like a superfun Brooklyn Desperate Housewives with erudite characters.” – Beth Davidson * Library Journal *”[A]n emotional web full of love, lust and regret, tinged with forgiveness. Don’t worry if you don’t know whether to laugh or cry during the novel—that’s what makes it captivating.” * Woman’s Day *”…dubious career moves, hilarious social commentary and clever twists and turns in Motherland — making it a perfect last-minute beach read before fall arrives.” – Jocelyn McClurg * USA Today *
