From the rear cover
Flournoy is a magician here is a story that is charming and funny while being whip-smart and profound. Laced through are the hard facts of history and the mysterious workings of the human heart. This is a thrilling debut. Tayari Jones
An expansive and ambitious novel that descends through the generations of one family s history to achieve real poignancy and power. T. C. Boyle
The Turner House is masterful: full of history and lies and the myths that can bring a family together, or tear it apart. This is a beautiful, elegant, and living novel, one that you will savor until the last, moving paragraph. Daniel Alarcon
As compelling, unforgettable, and beautifully told a story as I ve read in ages. While each of the thirteen siblings (and their parents) could carry a book on his or her own, here they remain indelibly linked by the complicated bonds of history and belonging and by the promises of their heartbreak city, Detroit. Cristina Garcia
This book is so beautifully written, so perfectly observed and heard it s about aging and parenthood and above all that misunderstood lifelong union, siblinghood but it s also pure pleasure to read: funny, heartbreaking, with the sort of characters you ll miss like family when you finish. Elizabeth McCracken"
