"She has a strange and wonderful mind, and the ability to speak it with enduring grace." — The New Yorker
"A stand up ecstatic . . . Like all great writers, she is fresh, jarring, passionately dedicated to her subject." — Threepenny Review

"This selection of writings, chosen by Dillard herself, provides a perfect sampling of her incisive, versatile, and impeccable achievements." — Booklist
