"A testament to people of courage and humor with a zest for living."―Language Arts
"What James Still has done is to look at the people of the mountains and just a 'bunch of houses in a hollow' and see a universe unto itself."―Lexington Herald-Leader
"Vintage James Still. . . . The tale of a poor, but proud, Eastern Kentucky mountain family who, when there's no work in the coal mines, is to turn to an unforgiving landscape as a means of survival."―Paintsville Herald
"Still's novel is an appealing mixture of earthiness and poetry. . . . We are filled with admiration for robust people who have time to laugh and enjoy life, even in hard times."―Publishers Weekly
"Hard times during the Depression and family sacrifices are treated with honesty and humor."―School Library Journal
"James Still is a Kentucky writer I profoundly admire. He is capable of such delicacy and at the same time such power, and he's a man who has really mastered the art, the craftsmanship."―Wendell Berry
