Review Quotes:
"A work of considerable originality. A luminous sense of wonder flickers throughout the book." - Wall Street Journal
"Richly allusive, beautifully written, and mysteriously affecting...This is the story of an American family that has a special relationship with fairies...[But the book] has more in common with Bellefleur or One Hundred Years of Solitude than it does with Peter Pan." - New York Newsday
