Sharon Pywell
Praise for Everything After"A perceptive take on the generation that came of age during the late 60's, this second novel, with its quietly beautiful, perfectly paced prose, centers on a family divided both physically and politically by the vietnam War." People "The best examination of political and moral issues within the framework of family life since Jane Smiley's A Thousand Acres. Pywell has a gift for capturing the complexity of sibling relationships that is all her own." Kirkus Reviews "Pywell's ability to nail the dynamics of a family in crisis make this an immersive, affecting read." Publishers Weekly "Everything After is one of those books that pulls and tugs at you, nipping at the corner of your emotions. It's seductive and sneaks up on you, adding layer upon layer and in the end makes you think about the things that mean something to you. [It] is a story of memories, and everyone knows that memories can be good and bad, real or imagined. As Pywell says, 'Memory is just another way of forgetting: you place a picture in your mind and the longer you entertain it, the further it pushes all other possible truths away.'" Denver Post |
