Critics Review
Praise for
Praise for Home Sweet Home:
“Smith’s second historical novel delves into the McCarthy era and how one family is swept up in its fanaticism… .[She] perceptively brings this dark period in U.S. history to light in her dramatic family saga.”—Deborah Donovan, Booklist (starred)
“[In] Smith’s terrific new novel… .[she] illuminates the force of McCarthyism-generated fear in the Midwest and effectively personalizes it through the persecution the Kusak family endures for their liberal beliefs. The author also skillfully ties together the two time periods, avoiding melodrama.”—Publishers Weekly
