This is such a good novel that I'm still shaking thinking about it... A novel not to be recommended to people but to be pressed on them, urgently

Truly magnificent...I implore you now, not to let it pass you by

A novel written with sympathy and with restraint, and in a prose thatt is almost poetically direct and sure... If you do not read Time Will Darken It you will have missed something rare

Here is a book that is as near perfection as it is possible for a novel to be

He conjures depths of pain and regret in words of radiant simplicity

Maxwell's voice is one of the wisest in American fiction; it is as well, one of the kindest

Every time I read this I discover something new

What elevates The Making of Henry..is the way it talks about love. That, and being funny

This is brilliantly, biliously funny. It is also painfully, movingly sad...Expansive and compassionate... Sharp and hilarious, this latest novel shows Jacobson at his best

A story of modern love that will have readers laughing and sighing with recognition... A wry, insightful, thoroughly enjoyable tale about how men and women choose their demons and their lovers, and the sacrifices they're willing to make for both

Delightful... Her characters are, as always, wonderfully imperfect
